The school also performs exceptionally well for female students, ranking in the top 5-10% of Kentucky elementary schools.

Additionally, Grant's Lick Elementary has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 15.7% in 2022-2023 to 25.0% in 2024-2025, which is higher than the district and state averages.
