Laurel County Schools eLearning Academy

Q: Is Laurel County Schools eLearning Academy a good school?

Laurel County Schools eLearning Academy ranks 200 th of 290 Kentucky alternative schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

The Laurel County Schools eLearning Academy is a small, alternative public virtual school serving grades K-12 in London, Kentucky. The school is part of the highly-ranked Laurel County School District, which has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The eLearning Academy boasts an impressive 90.0% four-year graduation rate, significantly higher than the 64.7% rate at the nearby Horse Creek Learning Center. However, the school's academic performance on standardized tests is more mixed, with stronger results in reading and writing but weaker performance in mathematics compared to the district and state averages. The school's small size, with a student-teacher ratio of just 6:1, may contribute to its high graduation rate but does not seem to translate to consistently strong academic outcomes across all subject areas.

While the eLearning Academy's graduation rate is a positive indicator, there are opportunities for improvement in academic achievement, particularly in mathematics. The lack of data on free and reduced lunch rates makes it difficult to fully assess the school's performance in the context of its student population. Overall, the Laurel County Schools eLearning Academy appears to be a promising alternative option for families in the area, but more data and analysis would be needed to fully understand its strengths and challenges.

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.
