To be honest, I am surprised this hasn't happened before now. Perry County like other surrounding counties in eastern Kentucky is losing population and it just makes sense from an economic standpoint for a consolidation to happen. I agree with some of the other posters about kids going to other county schools. There have always been kids from Breathitt who live close to Perry Line on Hwy 28, who have attended Buckhorn. Actually, some of the best athletes to ever play at Buckhorn lived in Breathitt County, but went to school and played athletics at Buckhorn. Sadly, this is becoming common theme in eastern Kentucky due to the declining population.
