Elementary Schools in Paris Independent

The Paris Independent school district in Kentucky has two elementary schools: Paris Elementary School and Paris Preschool Center. Both schools appear to be performing below average compared to state-level metrics, with no clear standout schools in the district.

Paris Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Kentucky elementary schools over the past 3 years, with a 0-1 star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in core subjects like Math, Reading, and Writing are significantly below the state averages, often by 10-20 percentage points. Both Paris Elementary School and Paris Preschool Center have high rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 69.91% and 65.85% respectively, suggesting a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students in the district.

The data also reveals that both schools have a chronic absenteeism rate of 25.0%, which is significantly higher than the state average. This high chronic absenteeism can negatively impact student learning and academic performance. Additionally, the performance of Paris Elementary School has remained stagnant or even declined over the past 3 years, with no clear signs of improvement, indicating that the district may need to implement more effective strategies to support student learning and academic achievement.
