Middle Schools in Elliott County

There is only one middle school located in Elliott County, Kentucky - Elliott County Middle School. This school has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Kentucky middle schools, with low proficiency rates on state assessments compared to the state average. The school serves a high percentage of students from low-income backgrounds, with 67.8% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023.

Elliott County Middle School's performance on state assessments is significantly below the state average across multiple subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, only 7% of 8th-grade students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state average of 37%. This suggests that the school is struggling to meet the academic needs of its students and may require additional support or interventions to improve student outcomes.

Despite the school's low performance, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.8, which may indicate that the school is able to provide more individualized attention to students. However, other factors, such as teacher experience, professional development, and overall school climate, can also impact student learning and achievement. Addressing the challenges faced by Elliott County Middle School will likely require a comprehensive, data-driven approach that considers the unique needs and circumstances of the school and its community.
