Summary:
The city of Falmouth, Kentucky has 2 schools serving students from elementary through high school: Southern Elementary School and Pendleton County High School. Both schools are performing significantly below state averages, with low rankings and poor test scores across all subjects and grade levels.
Pendleton County High School is ranked 194 out of 290 Kentucky high schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, while Southern Elementary School is ranked 490 out of 685 Kentucky elementary schools with a 1-star rating. Both schools have a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic disadvantage in the Falmouth community.
Despite higher spending per student at Southern Elementary School, the academic performance of both schools remains well below state averages. The student-teacher ratios are also lower than the state average, but this does not appear to be driving better outcomes for students in the Pendleton County school district. Significant improvements will be needed to bring these schools up to par with the rest of the state.
