The school is part of the Fayette County School District, which is ranked 77 out of 159 districts in Kentucky and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite its diverse student population, Bryan Station Middle School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kentucky middle schools, with performance on state assessments generally below the Fayette County and state averages. The school's academic struggles are particularly pronounced for certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic and students with disabilities, who tend to perform below their peers.

When compared to other middle schools in the Fayette County district, Bryan Station Middle School consistently underperforms, with schools like Edythe Jones Hayes Middle School, Morton Middle School, and Beaumont Middle School outperforming it on state assessments and having higher rankings. However, some schools with similar demographics, such as Crawford Middle School and Winburn Middle School, also struggle with academic performance, suggesting that factors beyond just socioeconomic status may be at play.

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.

Open Quote We have had a really awful experience with the school. They have been very punitive during this global crisis. We can’t take it anymore. We have contacted everyone we could think of to contact and we won’t stop. We will keep fighting for our child. Close Quote

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.
