Eden Elementary School

Q: Is Eden Elementary School a good school?

Eden Elementary School ranks 375 th of 685 Kentucky elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Eden Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Inez, Kentucky, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 426 students. The school is part of the Martin County School District, which is ranked 137 out of 159 districts in Kentucky and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Eden Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kentucky elementary schools, with proficiency rates in Mathematics ranging from 33% to 48%, compared to the state average of 42-43%. The school's performance is particularly weak in Mathematics, and it has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 72.54% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Additionally, the school has a relatively high student-teacher ratio and low per-student spending, which may be contributing factors to its consistently low academic performance.

While the nearby schools in the Martin County School District also perform poorly on academic measures, some nearby schools in the Johnson County and Lawrence County school districts, such as Flat Gap Elementary, Highland Elementary, and Louisa East Elementary, demonstrate significantly higher academic performance, despite serving student populations with similar socioeconomic backgrounds. Addressing the challenges faced by Eden Elementary School will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to improving academic outcomes, potentially through targeted interventions, professional development for teachers, and increased resource allocation.

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.
