Best Public Schools in Zip Code 41230


Summary:

The 41230 zip code area in Lawrence County, Kentucky is home to 5 schools serving students from elementary through high school, all part of the Lawrence County school district. While the district as a whole is ranked 106 out of 159 in the state, one school in particular, Fallsburg Elementary School, stands out as a top performer with consistently high academic achievement.

Fallsburg Elementary has earned a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks in the top 25% of elementary schools in Kentucky. The school excels in reading and writing, with 76% of 5th graders and 79% of 8th graders scoring proficient or better on state assessments. In contrast, the other schools in the area have more mixed performance, with some grade levels and subjects above the state average but others below. Lawrence County High School in particular had below-average proficiency rates, especially in math.

Despite the high academic performance at Fallsburg Elementary, all schools in the 41230 zip code area serve a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with free and reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 62.53% to 74.17%. This suggests the need for additional resources and support to address the unique challenges faced by these students. While spending per student varies across the schools, this does not appear to directly correlate with academic outcomes, indicating that factors beyond just funding, such as instructional quality and school leadership, play a key role in student success.
