Summary

Hopkinsville High School is a public high school serving 935 students in grades 9-12 in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, which is part of the Christian County School District. The school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is generally below the state and district averages, with proficiency rates in KSA Mathematics (35%), KSA Reading (46%), and KSA Science (22%) lower than the state averages. However, Hopkinsville High School performs better than the nearby Bluegrass Learning Academy, which has significantly lower test scores.

Hopkinsville High School has maintained a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 89.5% to 96.8% in recent years, and a low dropout rate, ranging from 1.1% to 1.4%. The school's student population is diverse, with significant percentages of African American (31-40%), Hispanic (30-47%), and White (69-81%) students, and a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds (60-66% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch). Compared to the nearby Christian County High School, Hopkinsville High School has a higher percentage of students from low-income families and a more diverse student population.

Hopkinsville High School has experienced relatively high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 23.5% to 33.6% in recent years, which can negatively impact student academic performance. The school's performance also varies significantly among different student subgroups, with Hispanic and White students generally performing better than African American and Special Education students. To address these challenges, the school may need to focus on targeted interventions for underperforming student subgroups, more effective resource allocation, and collaboration with higher-performing schools within the Christian County School District to identify and implement best practices.

Thursday, February 14, 2019

this school has leaks in the ceilings, mold, asbestos, exposed ceilings and pipes, and high chances you will get sick is it worth your child coming here? probably, if you want the school to pay your hospital bill. and some people at the school think that we're spreading lies about the conditions in the school even though there is video and photo evidence that this school is in desperate need of a remodel or at least some fixing up, which would probably be finished after i graduate, knowing them. oh, and theres lots of sex happening here so fairly high percent chance of pregnancy, so be prepared for your grandkids early.
