Grant County


Summary:

The Grant County school district in Kentucky consists of 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the district, with some standout schools like Dry Ridge Elementary and Sherman Elementary performing relatively well, while others, such as Mason-Corinth Elementary, struggle with proficiency rates as low as 7-23% in key subjects.

The district-wide test scores tend to be below state averages, especially in math and reading, with the highest proficiency rates in the 40-50% range. However, the schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios and per-student spending, suggesting potential opportunities for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes. The high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 61.4% to 78.52%, indicate a high level of economic disadvantage in the district and a potential correlation between poverty and academic performance.

At the high school level, Grant County High School has a relatively high 91.4% 4-year graduation rate compared to the state, but its academic performance is still below state averages, with proficiency rates in the 20-42% range. This suggests that the academic challenges faced by students may compound as they progress through the education system, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and support throughout the district.
