Summary:
The 42717 zip code area in Kentucky is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Cumberland County Elementary School, Cumberland County High School, and Cumberland County Middle School. While these schools generally perform above the state average, the data reveals both strengths and areas for improvement across the district.
The standout schools in this area are Cumberland County Middle School, which ranks in the top third of Kentucky middle schools and achieved a 3-star rating, and Cumberland County High School, which also ranks in the top third of Kentucky high schools and maintains a 3-star rating. Both schools excel in writing and editing, outperforming state averages. However, the elementary and middle schools struggle with mathematics proficiency, an area that requires targeted interventions.
Across the district, the high free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 67.8% to 79.72%, indicate that the 42717 zip code area serves a predominantly low-income student population. While the high school's 93.2% 4-year graduation rate is a notable strength, the district as a whole must continue to address the unique challenges faced by its high-poverty student populations to ensure all students have the resources and support they need to succeed.
