Summary

Crossroads Elementary School in Cold Spring, Kentucky, serves 587 students in PK–5 in Campbell County, a district ranked 16th of 158 Kentucky districts by SchoolDigger. The school’s strongest result is mathematics, where its average is above the state average, but its overall local comparison is the key takeaway: Crossroads’ averages are below nearby-school averages in all six tested subjects.

Mathematics is Crossroads’ strongest subject relative to the state: its average is 50%, compared with 43% statewide, though it is 12 points below the district average and 8 points below the nearby-school average. Writing and science match the state results at 35% and 40%, respectively, but trail nearby schools by 10 and 11 points. Editing and Mechanics is the largest weakness against all three reference groups: Crossroads scores 37%, which is 11 points below the state, 14 below the district and 24 below nearby schools. Fifth-grade math is a particular concern: Crossroads’ 41% is 19 points below the nearby-school average. Its 2025–26 chronic absenteeism rate is 19%, higher than the district’s 14% and every nearby school’s reported rate, but below the state’s 24%.

Some results have improved over time: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, average math rose from 41% to 50%, and writing from 27% to 35%, reaching the state result. SchoolDigger’s ranking also rose from the 35th percentile in 2023–24 to the 49th in 2025–26, though it remains 348th of 684 schools and carries two stars. Crossroads has a 14.5 student–teacher ratio; 61% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness ranking differs notably by group: students receiving special education rank at the 13th percentile, compared with 49th overall, while female students rank at the 63rd percentile. The special education ranking rose from the 3rd percentile in 2024–25, and the female-student ranking climbed 35 points across the three reported years.

Open Quote Crossroads is a fantastic school! You simply cannot judge a school based solely on test scores. I used to believe that you could but there is so much to going on beyond the test scores. For example, Crossroads is the Elementary School in the district that services the District's autistic children. It has a high number of special needs children and what nobody wants to talk about isn't the idea of whether special children should be in school. No, it's not that at all. What people don't know is that the test scores from these special children aren't excluded from the rest of the children. If you remove the scores then you'd see something
different. I know the faculty and staff and they are dedicated and energetic educators. They love their kids and work very hard, not only in the classroom, but in professional development as well. They continue to want to improve their craft. As I said, Crossroads is a fantastic school and I will continue to send my children regardless of my options based on some stupid ranking based on a poorly thought out and written law! Close Quote
