Summary

Temple Hill Elementary School serves 266 students in PK–6 in the Glasgow area of Barren County. Its results show a striking difference by grade: sixth grade is a standout, while third-grade math is a clear concern.

Sixth-grade results are among the school’s strongest: in 2025–26, 72% of students were proficient in math and 75% in reading, both 13 points above the Barren County results. The scores also topped the state by 30 points in math and 21 in reading; nearby county-school peers averaged 62% in math and 60% in reading. Third-grade math, by contrast, was 26%—16 points below both the district and state, and below the nearby-peer average of 42%. Across grades 3–6, reading and math averaged 58% and 50%, respectively, above district and state averages. Fifth-grade writing and editing and mechanics were weaker: writing was 30%, versus 39% in the district and 35% statewide; editing and mechanics was 39%, versus 49% among nearby county-school peers.

Reading has improved over time: its four-grade average rose from 41% in 2022–23 to 58% in 2025–26, a gain of 17 points, while writing fell 45 points from 75% in 2024–25 to 30%. SchoolDigger gives Temple Hill a 56th-percentile ranking and 3 stars in 2025–26, up from the 48th percentile in 2023–24 but below its earlier 89th-percentile high. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves Special Education Students is notably higher, at the 89th percentile; its Female Students ranking rose from the 28th to the 58th percentile. Other context: the student-teacher ratio was 14:1 in 2024–25, and 61% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. Chronic absenteeism was 12% in 2025–26, below the district’s 17% and the state’s 24%.

I am so impressed with the staff that I wouldn't sent my kids anywhere else. My daughter has had the most amazing teachers and never fails to impress me with all she has learned. Keep up the great work Mr Hall, you definitely are one of the best principals around. Close Quote
