Elementary Schools in Dayton Independent

The Dayton Independent school district in Kentucky has only one elementary school, Lincoln Elementary School. Despite higher per-student spending and smaller class sizes, Lincoln Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Kentucky elementary schools over the past three years, indicating persistent academic challenges.

Lincoln Elementary School serves a student population with a high percentage (81.52%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting significant economic disadvantages. The school's performance on state assessments is generally below the Dayton Independent district and the state of Kentucky averages across various subjects and grade levels. This raises questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation and the need for targeted interventions to address the specific needs of the student population.

While the current performance of Lincoln Elementary School is concerning, the data suggests that there may be opportunities for improvement. The smaller class sizes and higher per-student spending could be leveraged to implement more personalized and targeted instructional strategies to support student learning. Continued monitoring and targeted interventions may be necessary to help the school improve and better serve its students.
