Tiny Nicholas County was Kentucky's fastest growing over the 2024-2025 period, with a 2.5% population increase. Madison County grew by 2.1%, becoming the state's 8th county to have a 100,000+ population. Thirty nine countries are estimated to have lost people over this time.

Over the past five years, Warren County's population has increased by 11% (nearly 15,000 people), the fastest growth in Kentucky. Madison County grew 9.7% and Allen County grew 9.5%. Kentucky's two largest counties, Jefferson and Fayette, also gained people during this period.

Senate Bill 4, as currently written, undermines the authority of locally elected school board members & diminishes the voices of nearly 1 million voters in Kentucky's two largest school districts. KSBA believes all individuals governing a local school district should be elected.

KSBA mourns the passing of former Gov. Martha Layne Collins. As governor, her education reforms of 1985, including staff raises, reduced class sizes & increased funding for construction & poorer districts, paved the way for KERA. We extend our condolences to her family & friends.

@DrSPruitt @ksbanews @KyDeptofEd Thank you!
