The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance among these schools, with some standouts like Schaffner Traditional Elementary and Butler Traditional High outperforming their peers, while others like Mill Creek Elementary and Wellington Elementary face significant challenges.
The data reveals that the schools in this area generally perform below the Jefferson County district and state averages in math, reading, and other subject proficiency levels. However, the magnet schools, such as Schaffner Traditional Elementary and Butler Traditional High, tend to outperform the non-magnet schools. Additionally, the alternative school, Waller-Williams Environmental, stands out with a very low student-teacher ratio but a relatively low 4-year graduation rate.
The data also highlights the significant economic challenges faced by many of the schools in the 40216 zip code area, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 51% at Schaffner Traditional Elementary to 80% at Mill Creek Elementary. This suggests the need for additional resources and support to address the unique challenges faced by high-poverty schools in the area.
