Best Public Schools in Edmonton, KY


Summary:

The city of Edmonton, Kentucky is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Metcalfe County school district. Unfortunately, the data paints a concerning picture, as these schools are consistently underperforming compared to state averages across a range of academic metrics.

Proficiency rates at Metcalfe County Elementary School, Metcalfe County High School, and Metcalfe County Middle School lag significantly behind state averages in subjects like math, reading, and writing. The middle school, in particular, struggles the most, with proficiency rates below 30% in 8th grade math and reading. Additionally, all three schools serve a high percentage of students from low-income families, with free and reduced lunch rates ranging from 67% to 74%.

Despite higher-than-average spending per student and relatively small class sizes, the Metcalfe County schools have consistently low performance and have remained in the bottom tier of the state's school rankings for several years. This suggests that the resources may not be effectively allocated or utilized to address the unique challenges faced by these schools and their student populations. Addressing the systemic issues will require a comprehensive and sustained effort to improve educational outcomes in the Edmonton, Kentucky area.
