Best Public Schools in Cumberland, KY


Summary:

The city of Cumberland, Kentucky has only one school serving grades PK-8, Cumberland Elementary School, with a total enrollment of 449 students. The school's academic performance on state assessments is mixed, with some subject areas and grade levels performing above the Harlan County district and Kentucky state averages, while others are below. Cumberland Elementary is ranked 348 out of 685 Kentucky elementary schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One notable finding is the school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (83.52%), indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student population. This could be a contributing factor to the school's inconsistent academic performance and may require additional resources and support to address the needs of this student population. However, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.9 to 1, which suggests students may receive more individualized attention and support from their teachers.

Overall, while Cumberland Elementary School has some areas of strength, such as its small class sizes, the data suggests the school has room for improvement in providing a more consistent, high-quality education across all subject areas and grade levels. Without additional schools in the Cumberland area to compare against, it is difficult to identify true standout schools, but the available information highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address the academic and socioeconomic challenges facing Cumberland Elementary School.
