All 28 public schools serving Bowling Green in two districts, with addresses, grades, enrollment, 2025-26 Kentucky ratings and zone links.
Last checked Oct. 16, 2026. Sources: Bowling Green Independent Schools, Warren County Public Schools and its attendance area pages, the Kentucky Department of Education’s 2025-26 accountability datasets, the federal NCES school directory for 2024-25 and the NCES Private School Survey for 2023-24.
Two school districts serve Bowling Green. Bowling Green Independent Schools (BGISD) runs seven schools in the city school district. Warren County Public Schools (WCPS) serves the rest of the county, including large parts of the city: on the district’s own attendance map, WCPS zones cover most of the land inside the city limits. School zones do not follow city limits, so check the address, not the town.

This guide lists every BGISD school and every WCPS school whose attendance area takes in part of the city on the district’s map. Two WCPS elementary schools whose areas only touch the city’s edge, North Warren and Richardsville, are left out. Tables are in alphabetical order. Ratings are Kentucky’s 2025-26 overall color and score, from blue (highest) through green, yellow and orange to red; enrollment is the federal count for 2024-25.
