55^th

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 684 Kentucky Elementary Schools

Better than 92% of Kentucky elementary schools

Summary

Erpenbeck Elementary School serves 764 students in pre-K through grade 5 in Florence, Kentucky, in Boone County. SchoolDigger gives it 5 stars and ranks it 55th of 684 Kentucky schools, at the 92nd percentile; among 10 nearby schools, it ranks third overall, behind Shirley Mann Elementary School and New Haven Elementary School. The clearest caveat to this strong overall profile is its much lower SchoolDigger standing for Special Education Students: the 15th percentile, compared with the school’s 92nd-percentile overall result.

Erpenbeck is above state, district and nearby-school averages in every reported subject, with its strongest relative results in math and science. Its math average is 69%, 26 points above the state, 15 above the district and 24 above nearby schools; science is 64%, respectively 24, 19 and 21 points higher. Social studies is the weakest comparison: its 45% is only 7 points above the state, 2 above the district and 5 above nearby schools. Locally, it ranks second in grade 5 math and third in grade 4 science, as well as grade 5 writing, social studies, and editing and mechanics.

Results have shifted in different directions: science rose from 44% in 2022–23 to 64% in 2025–26, while social studies fell from 69% to 45% and reading declined from 72% to 68%. The school’s advantage over the state in social studies narrowed from 27 points to 7, while its science advantage grew from 9 points to 24. In 2024–25, the student-teacher ratio was 16.2:1, tied for the second-highest among nearby schools reporting a ratio. Also that year, 36% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with a nearby-school average of 54%; this is context, not an explanation for results. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well the school serves Special Education Students rose from the 7th percentile in 2024–25 to the 15th in 2025–26. Its measure for how well it serves Hispanic Students increased from the 62nd percentile to the 90th over those same years.
