Summary

Kyrock Elementary School in Sweeden, Kentucky, serves pre-K through grade 4 and enrolls 334 students in Edmonson County, a district with a 4-star SchoolDigger rating and an 85th-percentile standing. Its strongest takeaway is math: in 2025–2026, Kyrock led the 11-school nearby group in both tested grades, with 65% proficiency in third grade and 63% in fourth.

Kyrock’s math results also topped district and state averages: its two-grade average was 64%, compared with 56% for the district and 43% statewide. Reading was a more mixed strength: third-grade proficiency was 65%, above the district’s 64% and state’s 49%, while fourth-grade reading was 57%, below the district’s 60% but above the state’s 50%. Kyrock’s 32% chronic absenteeism rate was a notable weakness, exceeding the district’s 28%, the state’s 24%, and every nearby school with a reported figure; the next-highest was H W Wilkey Elementary School at 23%.

Scores have declined from recent highs, although Kyrock remains ahead of the state. The average math result fell from 80% in 2023–2024 to 64% in 2025–2026, and reading fell from 75% to 61%; the average state lead narrowed from 37 to 21 points in math and from 26 to 12 points in reading. SchoolDigger ranks Kyrock at the 88th percentile with 4 stars, the highest percentile among the nearby schools listed, but its percentile has fallen from 99 in 2023–2024. SchoolDigger’s effectiveness ranking for female students also declined notably, from the 100th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 80th in 2025–2026, compared with Kyrock’s overall 88th percentile. In 2024–2025, the student-teacher ratio was 14.3, among the lowest nearby, and 70% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, versus a 65% nearby-school average. The 2025–2026 fourth-grade science figure was suppressed, so no current school result is available.
