Summary:
The four elementary schools located in Rowan County, Kentucky serve students from kindergarten through fifth grade. The data reveals that Rodburn Elementary School and Tilden Hogge Elementary School stand out as the top-performing schools in the district, with higher state rankings and better SchoolDigger ratings compared to their peers.
While the schools generally underperformed the state averages in Mathematics and Science, they showed more mixed results in Reading, Writing, and Editing/Mechanics. The schools also had a wide range of free and reduced lunch rates, from 54.09% at McBrayer Elementary to 79.21% at Clearfield Elementary, indicating that factors beyond socioeconomic status may be influencing student outcomes.
The data also reveals significant differences in per-student spending, ranging from $18,108 at McBrayer Elementary to $20,494 at Tilden Hogge Elementary, as well as student-teacher ratios, from 12.1 at Tilden Hogge Elementary to 18.6 at McBrayer Elementary. These variations in resources and staffing could be contributing to the varying academic performance across the schools in the Rowan County district.
