Summary

Right Fork School Center is an elementary school located in Stoney Fork, Kentucky, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 146 students. It is part of the Bell County School District, which is ranked 35 out of 157 districts in Kentucky and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Right Fork School Center has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kentucky elementary schools, with proficiency rates in Mathematics and Reading generally below the Bell County and Kentucky averages. The school's performance on state assessments (KSA) indicates that it faces significant challenges in improving student learning outcomes. Interestingly, the school's low socioeconomic status (SES) student subgroup performs relatively better than the overall student population, suggesting that targeted interventions could be effective.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Lone Jack School Center, Bell Central School Center, and Page School Center, Right Fork School Center generally performs worse on academic measures, with higher dropout rates and chronic absenteeism. However, the school's lower student-teacher ratio could be an advantage in providing more individualized attention to students. Addressing the high dropout rates and chronic absenteeism, as well as implementing targeted interventions to improve academic performance, could be crucial for enhancing the overall outcomes for students at Right Fork School Center.
