Ewing Elementary School

Summary:

Ewing Elementary School is a public elementary school in Ewing, Kentucky, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 343 students. The school is part of the Fleming County School District, which is ranked 123 out of 159 districts in Kentucky and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ewing Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kentucky elementary schools in recent years, with rankings ranging from 260 to 447 out of 684-687 schools. The school's performance on state assessments (KSA) is generally below the state and county averages, particularly in mathematics, where only 19% of 3rd graders and 50% of 6th graders were proficient or better, compared to the state averages of 43% and 42%, respectively. Reading performance is slightly better, but the school has struggled with science and social studies, with proficiency rates well below the state averages.

Despite the higher per-student spending and relatively low student-teacher ratio at Ewing Elementary School, the school's academic performance remains below the state and county averages. This suggests that simply increasing resources may not be enough to drive significant improvements, and the school may need to examine how resources are being utilized and explore more targeted, evidence-based strategies to support student learning and achievement. The school also faces challenges in addressing the needs of its diverse student population, with lower rankings for the school's White student subgroup compared to the overall school 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.
