The city of Eolia, Kentucky has only one public school, Arlie Boggs Elementary School, which serves grades K-8 with an enrollment of 121 students. The school is part of the Letcher County school district, which is ranked 121 out of 159 districts in Kentucky and has a 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.
Arlie Boggs Elementary School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from 270 out of 691 Kentucky elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 521 out of 684 in 2021-2022. Its SchoolDigger star rating has also decreased from 3 stars to 1 star during this period. The school's test scores in reading, social studies, and editing/mechanics are consistently lower than the Letcher County district and the state of Kentucky averages, with the exception of a higher 7th grade reading proficiency rate.
Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.3 to 1, Arlie Boggs Elementary School faces challenges related to its high percentage of students (61.16%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student population. These factors may contribute to the school's declining performance and the need for targeted strategies to improve educational outcomes for its students.
