In 3rd grade reading, Milton Elementary had only 10% proficiency compared to 16% for the district and 47% for the state. The school also has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 55.02%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite the school's relatively high spending per student of $12,634, which is above the national average, it does not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. Milton Elementary School is consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Kentucky elementary schools, with a ranking of 642 out of 685 schools in the 2023-2024 school year and a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.
