Summary:
The city of Morehead, Kentucky is home to 9 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 3 high schools, serving students from preschool through 12th grade. The schools in this area display a range of performance, with some standout institutions like Rodburn Elementary School and Tilden Hogge Elementary School showing strong test scores, while others like Rowan County Preschool Center appear to be underperforming.
Rowan County Senior High School stands out with the highest enrollment, a relatively high graduation rate, and a low dropout rate, though its test scores are mixed. The two smallest schools, Bluegrass Discovery Academy Middle and Bluegrass Discovery Academy High, serve a specialized population with very low enrollments and high free/reduced lunch rates. Overall, the Rowan County school district is ranked 105 out of 157 districts in Kentucky, suggesting room for improvement across its schools.
One area of concern across all schools in Morehead is the high rate of chronic absenteeism, which stands at 25.0% for each institution. This is an issue the district may need to address to improve student outcomes. The data also reveals disparities in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios, which could contribute to the performance differences observed between the schools.
