Summary

Ewing Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in Ewing, Kentucky, with 352 students. The school is part of the Fleming County School District, which is ranked 120 out of 157 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ewing Elementary has seen its statewide ranking fluctuate over the past decade, ranging from 231 out of 691 Kentucky elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 549 out of 685 in the most recent 2024-2025 school year. The school faces several key challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates that have risen from 17.6% in 2022-2023 to 25.0% in 2024-2025, significantly higher than the state average and the rates of the nearby Hillsboro Elementary and Flemingsburg Elementary schools. Additionally, Ewing Elementary's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better on the Kentucky State Assessments (KSA), is generally below the state and county averages across multiple subjects and grade levels.

The school's performance on the KSA assessments also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with the school's disabled students and male students performing relatively well, but the school's female students, white students, and low socioeconomic status students all ranking in the bottom 25% of the state. While Ewing Elementary's spending per student has increased from $10,731 in 2020-2021 to $13,594 in 2023-2024, which is higher than the state average, this higher spending does not appear to be translating into significantly better academic outcomes for the school when compared to the nearby Owingsville Elementary and Mason County schools.
