I think if this happens that a few adjacent area schools will pick up quite a few of Buckhorn’s students.
Here are the distances:
Perry Central and Hazard schools 28 miles/41 minute drive
To Owsley County schools 18 miles/25 minutes
To Breathitt County 26 miles/38 minutes
To Oneida Baptist 16 miles/41 minutes
To Leslie County is almost an hour drive and would be the least option I would think.
In driving distance Owsley is the best choice, particularly for the students who live north of Buckhorn on Route 28.

The above listed distances are even more eye opening when one adds in the totals for a round trip to school and back home. Owsley would be 36 miles round trip. Hazard is a 56 mile round trip, and over a beautiful route 28 but very mountainous and curvy.
