Summary:

Garrison, Kentucky, has one listed school, Garrison Elementary School, serving prekindergarten through grade 6. In the latest results, the school’s average across the 11 reported subject-and-grade results was 45%, compared with 49% statewide. The most important finding is that the school shifted from about 6 points above the state average in 2024–2025 to about 4 points below it in 2025–2026.

Because Garrison has only one listed school, there is no top or bottom school to compare; the clearest differences are among its latest grade-level results. Grade 6 reading stands out positively: 64% were proficient, 10 points above the state’s 54%. Grade 5 writing is the weakest relative result: 25% were proficient, 10 points below the state’s 35% and 14 points below the Lewis County district’s 39%.

Results changed unevenly from the prior year, with grade 5 writing falling most sharply, from 66% to 25%, a 41-point drop. Reading also weakened overall: its average went from 58% to 49%, although grade 6 remained a strong exception; scores fell in three of four grades.
