Sebree Elementary School's performance has been declining in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 473 out of 684 Kentucky elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 631 out of 685 in 2023-2024. The school's SchoolDigger rating has also decreased from 2 stars to 0 stars during this time. On state assessments, Sebree Elementary students consistently score below the county and state averages in both math and reading proficiency across grade levels.

The school serves a high-need population, with 76.67% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, indicating significant economic disadvantage. Additionally, the school's spending per student ($5,977 in 2018-2019) is below the state average, and the student-teacher ratio of 17.3 is higher than the recommended 15-to-1 ratio for elementary schools. These factors suggest that Sebree Elementary may be underfunded and lacking in resources, which could contribute to the observed academic underperformance.
