Oldham County

Summary:

The Oldham County school district in Kentucky consists of 18 schools, including 10 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, 3 high schools, and 1 alternative school, serving students from preschool through 12th grade.

Several schools in the district stand out for their exceptional performance. North Oldham High School ranks 2nd out of 254 Kentucky high schools, with 74% of 10th graders proficient or better in mathematics and 75% in reading. South Oldham High School ranks 7th, with 66% of 10th graders proficient or better in mathematics and 68% in reading. At the middle school level, North Oldham Middle School ranks 8th out of 320 Kentucky middle schools, with 78% of 6th graders proficient or better in mathematics and 76% in reading.

The district as a whole performs well, with high graduation rates ranging from 93.5% to 93.5% and low dropout rates from 1.1% to 1.1%.

The district's overall chronic absenteeism rate is 25.0%, which may require further investigation and targeted interventions.
