Summary:

Lone Oak Intermediate School is a high-performing public elementary school serving grades 4-5 in Paducah, Kentucky, part of the McCracken County School District. With 426 students, the school consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Kentucky, currently at 139 out of 685 schools.

Lone Oak Intermediate School excels academically, with 71% of 4th graders and 60% of 5th graders proficient or better in reading, compared to state averages of 50% and 46%. In math, the school's proficiency rates of 43% for 4th grade and 42% for 5th grade also outperform the state. The school's performance is particularly strong for African American, Hispanic, and multi-racial students, though it lags for students with disabilities and those from low-income families. Compared to nearby schools like Heath Elementary and Reidland Intermediate, Lone Oak Intermediate consistently ranks higher, though Concord Elementary in the same district outperforms it.

Despite its strong academic performance, Lone Oak Intermediate School has a relatively lower per-student spending ($10,246) and a lower student-teacher ratio (15.7) compared to some nearby schools.

This suggests that the school's success in supporting its diverse student body is a notable achievement.

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.
