Summary:
The city of Lewisport, Kentucky is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one of which is an alternative program). The data reveals a district with a standout high school, some challenges at the alternative program, and opportunities for improvement at the elementary and middle school levels.
Hancock County High School consistently ranks among the top 50 high schools in Kentucky, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school maintains an impressive 94.7% 4-year graduation rate and outperforms the state and county averages in several key test score metrics, including ACT English, Math, and Reading, as well as KSA Mathematics, Reading, Writing, Social Studies, and Editing and Mechanics. In contrast, the Hancock County Alternative Program faces unique challenges, with a significantly lower 50.0% 4-year graduation rate and a higher percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients compared to the other schools in the Hancock County district.
While the North Hancock Elementary School and Hancock County Middle School show generally solid performance, they tend to lag behind the high school in overall test score metrics and statewide rankings. The district-wide spending per student and student-teacher ratios suggest a relatively consistent level of resource allocation across the schools, though the alternative program's lower ratio may indicate a more targeted approach to supporting its students.
