Longest Elementary

Summary:

Longest Elementary is a public elementary school located in Greenville, Kentucky, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 384 students. The school is part of the Muhlenberg County School District, which is ranked 133 out of 159 districts in Kentucky and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Longest Elementary's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in various subjects, is generally lower than the Muhlenberg County and Kentucky state averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, Longest Elementary's 3rd grade math proficiency rate was 33%, compared to 38% for Muhlenberg County and 43% for the state. The school's performance in reading and other subjects also lags behind the county and state averages. Additionally, Longest Elementary's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from being ranked 183 out of 700 Kentucky elementary schools in 2018-2019 to being ranked 475 out of 685 in 2023-2024, and its SchoolDigger rating has also decreased, from 4 stars in 2018-2019 to 2 stars in 2023-2024.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Muhlenberg County district, such as Bremen Elementary and Muhlenberg South Elementary, also perform below the state averages in academic subjects, suggesting a broader challenge within the district. However, some schools outside the Muhlenberg County district, such as Grapevine Elementary and Jesse Stuart Elementary in the Hopkins County district, demonstrate stronger academic performance and higher rankings.

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.
