Summary

Allen Elementary School serves 462 students in grades PK–8 in Floyd County, where SchoolDigger rates the district 2 stars and places it at the 32nd percentile statewide. The central finding is a sharp contrast in achievement: fifth-grade writing is a standout, while several eighth-grade results are particularly weak.

Fifth-grade writing is the clearest strength: 51% of students were proficient, compared with 28% in the district and 35% statewide; that score tied for the highest among nearby schools with results, whose average was 30%. Grade 4 also showed promise: reading was 53%, above the district’s 46% and the state’s 50%, and math was 37%, above the district’s 31%. Eighth-grade results were much lower: reading and social studies were both 13%, and editing and mechanics was 15%. Those results trailed the state by 27, 26 and 27 percentage points, respectively, and were below nearby averages of 42%, 39% and 39%.

Results are moving in different directions: fifth-grade writing rose from 20% in 2022–2023 to 51% in 2025–2026, while average reading proficiency across grades 3–8 fell from 45% to 38%. SchoolDigger gives the school a 2-star rating and a 31st-percentile statewide ranking, up from the 29th percentile the prior year but below the 59th percentile in 2021–2022. The student-teacher ratio was 15.9 in 2024–2025, compared with a nearby-school average of 14.4; 83% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, versus a nearby average of 72%. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings are notably higher for Special Education Students, at the 53rd percentile versus 31st overall, and lower for Female Students, whose ranking fell from the 49th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 19th in 2025–2026.
