Summary:
Garrison, Kentucky is home to a single public elementary school, Garrison Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 286 students. The school is part of the Lewis County School District, which is ranked 72 out of 159 districts in Kentucky and is rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
While Garrison Elementary School has some positive metrics, such as a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.6, its academic performance on the Kentucky State Assessments (KSA) is mixed. The school's proficiency rates in mathematics and reading are generally below the state and district averages, with some exceptions in 6th-grade mathematics and 4th-grade reading. The school's performance has also fluctuated over the past two years, with some improvements and declines.
The school's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (74.13% in 2022-2023) indicates a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which may present additional challenges in terms of providing resources and support for student learning and well-being. However, the school's relatively high per-student spending of $12,478 for the 2018-2019 school year suggests that there may be opportunities to improve academic outcomes through targeted interventions, professional development, and resource allocation.
