Boyd County

Summary:

The schools in Boyd County, Kentucky serve students from kindergarten through 12th grade, with a total of 7 schools in the district, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. The data reveals a mix of academic performance across the schools, with some standouts like Ponderosa Elementary School consistently ranking among the top in the state, while other schools like Boyd County Middle School and Boyd County High School lag behind state averages in math and reading proficiency.

The district's graduation rates range from 83.3% at Boyd County Central School to 91.7% at Boyd County High School, with the state average around 90%. However, the schools have varying levels of economic disadvantage, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 51.81% at Boyd County High School to 85.71% at Boyd County Central School. This suggests that targeted support and interventions for economically disadvantaged students could be beneficial across the district.

The data also reveals disparities in per-student spending, which ranges from $11,110 at Boyd County Middle School to $18,457 at Catlettsburg Elementary, as well as student-teacher ratios that vary from 9.1 at Cannonsburg Elementary to 15.3 at Boyd County High School. Ensuring equitable funding and staffing allocations could help address these disparities and support student success across all schools in the Boyd County district.
