Summary

Park City Elementary School is a public elementary school in Park City, Kentucky, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 351 students. The school is part of the Barren County School District, which is ranked 67 out of 157 districts in Kentucky and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Park City Elementary School consistently ranks in the bottom half of Kentucky elementary schools, with a ranking between 511-585 out of 684-687 schools over the past 5 years. The school's performance on state assessments (KSA) is significantly below the Barren County and Kentucky averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in mathematics and reading were 18-45% compared to the county's 38-56% and the state's 41-52%. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as White students, Disabled students, and Homeless students, who rank in the bottom 10-20% of their respective categories.

Park City Elementary School has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20.3% to 28.0% over the past few years, which are significantly higher than the state average. The school also has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 68.46% to 75.21% over the past 3 years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. While the school's spending per student, ranging from $16,437 to $18,263 over the past 4 years, is higher than the state average, this additional funding has not translated into improved student outcomes. Nearby schools in the Barren County district, such as Eastern Elementary, Red Cross Elementary, Hiseville Elementary, and North Jackson Elementary, generally outperform Park City Elementary School on academic measures, despite also facing challenges with high rates of chronic absenteeism and economic disadvantage.
