McCracken County


Summary:

The McCracken County School District in Kentucky consists of 13 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, 1 high school, and 2 alternative schools. The district generally outperforms the state averages on standardized tests, with several standout schools like Concord Elementary School, Lone Oak Middle School, and Heath Middle School consistently ranking among the top schools in Kentucky.

While the district shows strong academic performance overall, there is some variation in metrics across the schools. The elementary schools have a wider range in test scores, free/reduced lunch rates, and student-teacher ratios compared to the middle schools, suggesting diverse challenges at the elementary level. The two alternative schools, McCracken Open Campus School and McCracken Regional School, face unique difficulties, with significantly lower test scores and higher rates of economic disadvantage among their student populations.

Overall, the McCracken County School District appears to have a mix of high-performing and more challenged schools, highlighting the need for continued analysis and targeted interventions to address equity concerns and ensure all students have access to quality education. The district's ability to maintain strong academic performance while supporting its most vulnerable student populations will be crucial in the years ahead.
