Elementary Schools in Jessamine County


Summary:

The Jessamine County school district in Kentucky is home to 7 elementary schools, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools vary in their academic performance, with some standouts like Wilmore Elementary School consistently ranking among the top in the state, while others like Brookside Elementary School struggle with test scores.

Among the top-performing schools in the district is Wilmore Elementary, which boasts a 4-star rating and strong test scores, particularly in mathematics and reading. Rosenwald Dunbar Elementary and Hattie C. Warner Elementary also stand out with 3-star ratings and above-average performance. However, the district as a whole faces challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, which can significantly impact student learning and achievement.

The data also reveals significant variations in spending per student, ranging from $15,017 at Rosenwald Dunbar Elementary to $21,728 at Jessamine Early Learning Village. However, there does not appear to be a clear correlation between spending and academic performance, suggesting that other factors, such as socioeconomic status and targeted interventions, may play a more significant role in student outcomes across the Jessamine County elementary schools.
