Summary:
The 41039 zip code in Kentucky has only one public elementary school, Ewing Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 with 343 students. The school is part of the Fleming County school district, which is ranked 123 out of 159 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Ewing Elementary School's academic performance has been declining over the past three years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 260 out of 684 Kentucky elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 392 out of 685 in 2023-2024. The school's performance on state assessments (KSA) is generally below the county and state averages across subjects and grade levels, particularly in math and social studies. For example, in 3rd grade math, Ewing Elementary had 19% proficiency compared to 43% statewide.
Despite higher per-student spending ($14,272) and a relatively low student-teacher ratio (18:1), Ewing Elementary is still underperforming. This suggests that simply increasing funding and resources may not be enough to address the school's challenges. Additionally, 58.02% of Ewing Elementary students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage in the school community, which may contribute to the academic struggles and should be considered when developing strategies to support student success.
