Pineville Independent School

Summary:

Pineville Independent School is an alternative public school located in Pineville, Kentucky, serving grades PK-12 with a total enrollment of 577 students. The school is part of the Pineville Independent school district.

Pineville Independent School stands out for its impressive 92.7% four-year graduation rate, which is significantly higher than the state average of 44%. The school also outperformed the state average in several subject areas, including ACT English, KSA Reading for 10th grade, and KSA Writing for 11th grade. However, the school struggled in mathematics, with lower proficiency rates compared to the state average across multiple grade levels. Pineville Independent School had a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 77.12% to 80.23% over the past three school years, suggesting a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school's per-student spending was relatively high, and its student-teacher ratio was lower than the state average, indicating a relatively small class size.

Compared to nearby schools, Knox Inspire Academy, an alternative virtual public school, had significantly lower test scores and a higher student-teacher ratio, while Barbourville City School, an alternative public school, had higher test scores and graduation rates than Pineville Independent School, but also had a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. These comparisons suggest that Pineville Independent School is effectively supporting its students and helping them achieve academic success, despite the challenges posed by the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

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.
