The school is part of the Allen County school district and has a current statewide ranking of 103 out of 290 Kentucky high schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the school has a strong 95.3% four-year graduation rate, its academic performance is generally below the state and county averages. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's proficiency rates in ACT/Mathematics (23%) and KSA/Mathematics (29%) for 11th and 10th graders, respectively, are lower than the state averages (30% and 36%). The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with Hispanic students performing relatively well but multi-racial students and special education students ranking lower compared to their peers statewide. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students (53.03% in 2022-2023) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students.

When compared to nearby high-performing schools, such as Bowling Green High School, South Warren High School, and Greenwood High School, Allen County-Scottsville High School generally performs worse on standardized tests and has lower graduation rates. Despite spending more per student ($22,190 in 2018-2019) compared to these nearby schools, the school's academic performance remains a concern, and exploring strategies to improve instruction and support for struggling students could be beneficial.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
