Best Public Schools in Zip Code 41040


Summary:

The 41040 zip code area is home to two schools - Pendleton County High School and Southern Elementary School, both part of the Pendleton County school district. While the high school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years, the elementary school has also experienced a similar drop, suggesting potential challenges in maintaining academic performance across the district.

Academically, the schools have mixed results, with Pendleton County High School's proficiency rates on standardized tests generally lower than the state averages, particularly in math and social studies. Southern Elementary School's performance is more varied, with some grade levels exceeding the state average in subjects like 4th grade math, while others, such as 3rd grade math, fall behind. Both schools serve a high-need student population, with over 50% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating the need for additional resources and support.

Despite the challenges, the schools also have some bright spots. Pendleton County High School boasts a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 96%, and the elementary school's student-teacher ratio of 12.9 is lower than the high school's 17.9, suggesting a focus on personalized attention. However, the higher spending per student at the elementary school ($11,487) compared to the high school ($9,951) does not appear to be directly translating into better academic outcomes, highlighting the need for a more targeted approach to address the specific needs of each school and grade level.
