Summary
Mason-Corinth Elementary serves 299 students in pre-K through grade 5 in Williamstown, in Grant County, Kentucky. Its results vary considerably by grade and subject: fourth-grade math is a bright spot, but reading and fifth-grade subjects are generally much weaker. In 2025–26, the school was below state proficiency rates in every subject with a reported score, making broad academic performance—particularly in reading and grade 5—the clearest concern.
Fourth-grade math is the school’s strongest comparison: 53% were proficient, 10 percentage points above the state and 14 points above Grant County; among ten nearby schools with results, only three scored higher. The contrast within the school is sharp: grade 5 math was 25%, 18 points below the state, and ranked third-lowest among eight nearby schools with results. Reading was also below state rates in grades 3–5 (30%, 47% and 33%, compared with 49%, 50% and 51% statewide). Compared with the district, results were mixed: Mason-Corinth was ahead in grade 3 and 4 math, but behind in grade 5 math. Grade 4 science and grade 5 writing results were state-suppressed.
Math has improved recently, but mostly because grade 4 rose 27 points, from 26% in 2024–25 to 53% in 2025–26; grades 3 and 5 rose only 4 and 3 points. Reading also follows different paths by grade: grade 4 increased 7 points and grade 5 increased 11, while grade 3 fell 11. SchoolDigger places the school at the 21st percentile with 1 star for 2025–26, up from the 12th percentile the prior year; the district is at the 13th percentile with 1 star. In 2024–25, 74% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, and the student-teacher ratio was 17.5. One historical subgroup result stands out: in 2017–18, SchoolDigger ranked effectiveness for Disabled Students at the 59th percentile, compared with the school’s overall 17th percentile that year; this is an older result, not a measure of current performance.
