Peaks Mill Elementary

Summary:

Peaks Mill Elementary is a public elementary school in Frankfort, Kentucky, serving 410 students in grades 1-5. The school is part of the Franklin County School District, which is ranked 120 out of 159 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Peaks Mill Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kentucky elementary schools, with its performance on state assessments (KSA) generally below the Franklin County and Kentucky averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, Peaks Mill's proficiency rates in mathematics ranged from 24% to 48%, compared to 35% to 44% for Franklin County and 41% to 43% for the state. The school's performance is particularly low for students with disabilities and those from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking in the bottom quarter of Kentucky elementary schools for these subgroups.

While the nearby schools in the Franklin County School District also perform below the state average, some schools outside the district, such as Heritage Elementary in Shelby County and Northside Elementary in Woodford County, have significantly higher academic performance and rankings, despite serving similar student populations. Addressing the needs of Peaks Mill's high-need student population and improving instructional practices may be key focus areas for the school and district to improve student outcomes.

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.
