Summary

Johns Creek Elementary School is a public elementary school in Pikeville, Kentucky, serving 619 students in grades PK-8 and part of the Pike County School District, which is ranked 26 out of 157 districts in the state.

While Johns Creek Elementary School spends significantly more per student ($16,499-$17,904) and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio (12.8 to 15.9 students per teacher) compared to the state average, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Johns Creek Elementary School's academic performance on state assessments, with results generally below the Pike County and Kentucky averages. However, the school does perform relatively well in certain areas, such as 7th and 8th grade mathematics, 6th and 7th grade reading, and 5th and 8th grade writing.

Nearby schools, such as Valley Elementary School and Millard School, consistently outperform Johns Creek Elementary School on state assessments, despite having a higher percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. This suggests that factors beyond just student demographics may be contributing to the academic success of these nearby schools. Additionally, Johns Creek Elementary School has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, which may be a contributing factor to its relatively low academic performance.
