Summary

Augusta Independent School is an alternative PK–12 school serving 334 students in Augusta, Kentucky; the supplied nearby comparison is Robertson County School, about 17 miles away. The school’s results vary substantially by grade: some are above state and nearby-school results, while others are well below them. The most important finding for parents is that there is no consistent schoolwide academic pattern—students’ results differ sharply depending on grade and subject.

Tenth-grade math and sixth-grade reading are standout strengths: in 2025–26, 47% were proficient in tenth-grade math, 7 points above the state and 22 above Robertson County; sixth-grade reading was 59%, 5 points above the state and 17 above Robertson. The picture reverses in some grades: third-grade reading was 26%, 23 points below the state and 20 below Robertson, while eleventh-grade social studies was 14%, 23 points below the state and 32 below the nearby school. Results also vary within subjects: Augusta led Robertson in fifth- and eighth-grade social studies but trailed it in eleventh grade. Scores at Augusta match those of the Augusta Independent district throughout the supplied data.

Some results have improved, but not consistently. Sixth-grade reading rose 33 points from 2022–23 to 2025–26, while tenth-grade reading fell 20 points over that span and remains below the state despite a recent rebound. Graduation increased from 90% in 2023–24 to 96% in 2025–26, above the state’s 94%; chronic absenteeism fell to 14%, compared with 24% statewide and 21% at Robertson. Augusta is smaller than Robertson, with 334 students versus 453, and its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 14.8 versus 18.1. In 2024–25, 55% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with 67% at Robertson. SchoolDigger statewide rankings, star ratings, and subgroup rankings were not provided.
