Summary

Bremen Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Bremen, Kentucky, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 350. The school is part of the Muhlenberg County School District, which is ranked 126 out of 157 districts in Kentucky and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bremen Elementary School has shown a declining trend in its statewide ranking, dropping from a high of 13th out of 698 Kentucky elementary schools in 2014-2015 to 348th out of 685 in 2024-2025. The school's performance on the Kentucky State Assessments (KSA) is generally below the state and county averages, particularly in mathematics. However, Bremen Elementary School performs better than the district and state averages in reading. The school's performance for certain student subgroups, such as female, male, and white students, is below the state average, but the school performs relatively well for special education students.

Comparing Bremen to nearby schools, it is clear that the school's performance is generally below that of higher-performing schools in the region, such as Hanson Elementary, despite having higher per-student spending and a more favorable student-teacher ratio. To improve student outcomes, Bremen Elementary School may need to focus on targeted interventions, particularly in mathematics, and address the high chronic absenteeism rates among its student population.
