While the district is ranked 8th out of 159 districts in the state and has a 5-star rating, Wingo Elementary has had a fluctuating statewide ranking over the past 10 years, ranging from as high as 111 out of 517 Kentucky elementary schools to as low as 431 out of 705.

Wingo Elementary's performance on state assessments varies significantly by student subgroup, with female students ranking 116 out of 644 Kentucky elementary schools, while male students ranked 228 out of 652. Additionally, the school's proficiency rates on the Kentucky state assessments (KSA) are generally below the Graves County and statewide averages, particularly in mathematics. Wingo Elementary also has very high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 70.8% to 75.93%, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Compared to other Graves County elementary schools, such as Farmington Elementary, Fancy Farm Elementary, and Graves County Central Elementary, Wingo Elementary's performance lags behind, with these schools consistently outperforming Wingo on state assessments and having higher statewide 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.
