Summary

Irvington Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Irvington, Kentucky, with an enrollment of 370 students. The school is part of the Breckinridge County School District, which is ranked 106 out of 157 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Irvington Elementary has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the past 10 years, ranging from #190 to #494 out of Kentucky's 684-700 elementary schools. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates on the Kentucky State Assessments (KSA) are generally lower than the Breckinridge County and state averages, especially in mathematics and science. However, the school's performance on reading assessments is closer to the county and state averages. Irvington Elementary has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 71.08% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, significantly higher than nearby schools like Ben Johnson Elementary (52.89%) and Hardinsburg Elementary (55.6%).

The school has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 22.8% to 30.1% over the past few years, notably higher than the state average of around 15-20%. Irvington Elementary's relatively lower per-student spending and higher student-teacher ratios compared to nearby schools may also be a factor in its academic performance. Addressing these challenges through targeted interventions and support could be crucial for improving student outcomes at the school.
