Summary:
The city of Brooksville, Kentucky is home to three schools serving students from elementary through high school: Taylor Elementary School, Bracken County High School, and Bracken County Middle School. Based on the available data, Bracken County Middle School stands out as the highest performing school in the area, consistently ranking among the top 100 middle schools in the state of Kentucky.
In contrast, Taylor Elementary School and Bracken County High School appear to be performing below average compared to other schools in Bracken County and the state. Taylor Elementary has a 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger and its test scores lag behind the county and state, especially in reading. Bracken County High School is ranked in the bottom half of Kentucky high schools and has lower proficiency rates on the ACT and KSA exams.
Across all three schools, the data suggests a relatively low-income student population, with over 50% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This socioeconomic factor may contribute to the academic challenges faced by some of the schools. However, the schools also have relatively low student-teacher ratios, which could be an asset in providing more individualized attention to students. Overall, the data highlights the need for continued improvement and support, especially at Taylor Elementary and Bracken County High School, to ensure all students in the Brooksville area have access to a high-quality education.
