Summary:

The city of La Grange, Kentucky is home to two schools: Oldham County High School and LaGrange Elementary School, both part of the Oldham County school district. While Oldham County High School has consistently ranked among the top high schools in Kentucky, LaGrange Elementary School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years.

Oldham County High School stands out with its impressive 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and a 93.5% four-year graduation rate. The school's test scores also exceed the state and district averages in most subject areas. In contrast, LaGrange Elementary School has maintained a 4-star rating, but its statewide ranking has dropped from 165th out of 687 elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 253rd out of 685 in 2024-2025, indicating potential areas for improvement.

The data also reveals a significant difference in the free/reduced lunch rates between the two schools, with Oldham County High School at 27.42% and LaGrange Elementary School at 58.66%. This suggests the elementary school serves a more economically disadvantaged population, which may require additional resources and support to ensure student success. Overall, the findings highlight the need to closely monitor school performance and identify strategies to address any disparities in academic achievement and resource allocation within the La Grange school system.
