John G Carlisle Elementary has shown mixed academic performance compared to the state and district averages. While the school's proficiency rates in Mathematics and Reading for 3rd-5th grades were generally lower than the state averages, they were higher than the Covington Independent district averages. The school's performance on specific subject tests varies, with stronger results in Reading compared to Mathematics and Science. The school's performance on the KSA (Kentucky Summative Assessment) has fluctuated over the years, with the school ranking between 221 and 461 out of 685-687 Kentucky elementary schools in recent years, and receiving 2-3 out of 5 SchoolDigger stars.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, its overall academic performance has been mixed, with fluctuating rankings and proficiency rates. However, the school's performance on the KSA for specific student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students, is particularly strong, often ranking among the top schools in the state for these populations. This suggests the school is effectively addressing the needs of its diverse student body and providing targeted support to ensure these students are achieving at high levels. Compared to nearby schools, John G Carlisle Elementary generally performs better academically than other Covington Independent schools, but lags behind the higher-performing Ft Wright Elementary, which is part of the Kenton County School District.

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.
