Best Public Schools in Zip Code 42050


Summary:

The 42050 zip code area in Kentucky is home to three schools - Fulton County Elementary, Fulton County High School, and Fulton County Middle School - all part of the Fulton County school district. While the district spends more per student than the state average, the schools in this area consistently underperform on standardized tests, with proficiency rates well below state averages in many subjects.

Across the three schools, the data shows low academic performance, with Fulton County Elementary and Middle School struggling the most. Both schools have math and reading proficiency rates that are significantly lower than the state averages. Fulton County High School has mixed results, with some areas above state averages but others still below. The high free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 66% to 75%, suggest these schools serve a predominantly low-income student population, which can contribute to the academic challenges.

Despite the higher-than-average spending per student, the schools in the Fulton County district are not seeing the expected improvements in student outcomes. Additionally, the student-teacher ratios vary, with the middle school having a significantly higher ratio than the elementary and high school, which may be a factor in its lower performance. Overall, the data indicates systemic issues within the Fulton County school district that need to be addressed to provide quality education for all students in the 42050 zip code area.
