Middle Schools in Daviess County

The Daviess County school district in Kentucky is home to three middle schools: Daviess County Middle School, College View Middle School, and F.T. Burns Middle School. Based on the available data, Daviess County Middle School stands out as the top-performing school in the group, consistently ranking higher in the state and outperforming the Daviess County and state averages on test scores.

While all three middle schools have a low 1.1% dropout rate, Daviess County Middle School has particularly strong results in 7th grade mathematics (66% proficient or better) and 8th grade writing (73% proficient or better). In contrast, College View Middle School and F.T. Burns Middle School generally lag behind in test score performance, with lower proficiency rates across the board.

The significant differences in test score performance between the three schools, despite being located in the same county, highlight the importance of examining individual school-level data rather than relying solely on district-level metrics. Additionally, the higher free/reduced lunch rate at F.T. Burns Middle School suggests the school may serve a more economically disadvantaged student population, which could contribute to its lower academic performance compared to the other two schools.
