Best Public Schools in Sebree, KY

Summary:

Sebree, Kentucky is home to a single public elementary school, Sebree Elementary School, which serves students from prekindergarten through 5th grade. The school is part of the Webster County school district and has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kentucky elementary schools over the past three years.

Sebree Elementary School's academic performance is a concern, with students scoring well below state and district averages on standardized tests. In 2024-2025, only 14% of 5th graders were proficient or better in math, compared to 34% in the district and 43% statewide. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching 25% in 2024-2025, which likely contributes to the poor academic outcomes. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 75.2% in 2023-2024, indicating potential equity issues.

Despite the higher-than-average spending per student ($12,246) and lower student-teacher ratio (17.5) at Sebree Elementary, the school's resources do not appear to be effectively translating into improved student learning. This suggests the need for a deeper analysis of the school's practices and strategies to better support student success and address the persistent challenges the school faces.
