Elementary Schools in LaRue County

The LaRue County school district in Kentucky is home to three elementary schools: Hodgenville Elementary School, Abraham Lincoln Elementary School, and Preschool on College Street. These schools serve students from prekindergarten through 5th grade and provide a range of educational opportunities in the region.

Among the three schools, Abraham Lincoln Elementary School stands out with consistently higher test scores, particularly in reading and editing/mechanics. The school has a higher percentage of students proficient or better in most subject areas, including mathematics, reading, science, and social studies. Additionally, the school's 5th-grade writing and social studies scores are notably above the county and state averages.

While the other two schools, Hodgenville Elementary School and Preschool on College Street, perform at or below the county and state averages in most subject areas, Hodgenville Elementary School has the highest 3rd-grade reading proficiency rate among the three schools, and its 5th-grade editing and mechanics scores are above the county and state averages. However, all three schools face challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates and a significant percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which may impact their overall performance and require additional support.
