Pembroke Elementary School

Summary:

Pembroke Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in Pembroke, Kentucky, with an enrollment of 660 students. The school is part of the Christian County School District, which is ranked 110 out of 159 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Pembroke Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Kentucky elementary schools, it performs better than the overall Christian County district in most academic subjects and grade levels. The school's performance is particularly strong for its African American and Hispanic student subgroups, ranking in the top 30-50 schools in the state for these demographics. Pembroke also has a high percentage of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch, around 64% in recent years, which is higher than the state average. However, the school's performance for its low-income student subgroup is better than the district and state averages, suggesting Pembroke is doing a good job supporting this population.

Compared to nearby schools, Crofton Elementary, Sinking Fork Elementary, Millbrooke Elementary, and South Christian Elementary all outperform Pembroke on state assessments, despite having similar demographics in terms of free/reduced lunch rates. These higher-performing schools also spend slightly more per student and have slightly lower student-teacher ratios. Pembroke's performance has been relatively stagnant, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade, while some of the higher-performing nearby schools have shown more consistent year-over-year growth and improvements in their state 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.
