Summary

Beechwood Elementary School in Fort Mitchell, Kentucky, serves pre-K through grade 6 and enrolls 780 students in a community with several nearby elementary-school options. Its most important distinction is its leading local standing: SchoolDigger ranks it 49th of 684 Kentucky elementary schools, in the 93rd percentile and with 5 stars—the highest percentile among the nearby schools.

Grade 5 is the school’s clearest academic strength: its scores lead the nearby group in all five reported subjects, including 86% in writing, compared with 35% statewide and a nearby-school average of 33%. Across comparable grades, the school also exceeds state and district averages in every subject; its mathematics average is 65%, matching the Beechwood Independent district, while its nearby-school advantage ranges from 12 points in reading to 53 points in writing. Younger grades are less uniformly strong: grade 3 reading was 52%, below six nearby schools’ scores, while grade 4 was strong, including 66% in reading, tied for the nearby high.

Results over time show writing gaining ground: grade-5 writing rose from 78% in 2022–23 to 86% in 2025–26, while the state score fell from 39% to 35%, widening the school’s lead from 39 to 51 points. Science proficiency declined from 69% to 63%, though its lead over the state narrowed by 11 points. SchoolDigger’s overall percentile has stayed high—93rd in 2023–24, 92nd in 2024–25 and 93rd in 2025–26—but subgroup results vary: its statewide ranking for how well it serves Hispanic students fell to the 49th percentile, 44 points below the overall percentile; for Low Socio Economic Status Students, it rose 25 points to the 62nd percentile. Context for families: the 2024–25 free/reduced lunch eligible share was 8%, the lowest among nearby schools, while the student-teacher ratio was 19.3, the highest in the group.
