Summary

Farmington Elementary School in Mayfield, Kentucky, serves 288 students from prekindergarten through grade 6 in a community surrounded by nearby schools across Graves and neighboring counties. Its results are strong overall, but the clearest standout is reading: Farmington’s third-grade proficiency was 92%, compared with 49% statewide and an average of about 62% at nearby schools with reported scores.

Farmington also stands out in fifth-grade reading and writing: 89% were proficient in reading and 78% in writing, and no nearby school with reported fifth-grade reading results scored higher; the next-highest writing result was Wingo Elementary School at 70%. Those scores compare with district results of 67% in reading and 58% in writing, and state results of 51% and 35%. Math is a more mixed picture: Farmington led nearby schools in grades 3 and 4, but its fifth-grade result of 57% was only 3 points above the nearby average, and four nearby schools scored higher. Fifth-grade social studies was another strength, at 76% versus 54% in the district and 38% statewide. Current-year results for some subjects are unavailable because the state suppressed them.

Results have shifted over time: fifth-grade writing rose 16 points from 2024–25 to 78%, while fifth-grade math fell 11 points to 57% and sixth-grade math fell 13 points to 71%; third-grade reading increased 10 points since 2022–23 to 92%. Farmington ranks 6th of 684 Kentucky schools, in the 99th percentile with five stars, according to SchoolDigger—well ahead of nearby Graves County Central Elementary, ranked 38th. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 13.4:1. Also in 2024–25, 61% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, a share near the middle among nearby schools. Chronic absenteeism was 4.6% in 2025–26, lower than every nearby school with a reported figure, and down from 10.2% in 2021–22.
