Hattie C. Warner Elementary School is a public elementary school in Nicholasville, Kentucky, serving 559 students in grades 1-5. The school is part of the Jessamine County School District, which is ranked 51 out of 157 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Hattie C. Warner Elementary has consistently ranked in the middle to lower range of Kentucky elementary schools over the past 10 years, typically ranking between 200-500 out of around 700 schools. The school maintains a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating average performance compared to other Kentucky elementary schools. While the school performs relatively well for Hispanic and multi-racial students, it struggles with its special education and disabled student populations, ranking in the bottom quartile of Kentucky schools for these subgroups. Additionally, the school has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism rates, rising from 11% in 2022-2023 to 25% in 2024-2025.

Academically, Hattie C. Warner Elementary's proficiency rates on the Kentucky State Assessments are slightly below the Jessamine County and statewide averages across grade levels and subject areas. The school performs best in 4th and 5th grade reading, with proficiency rates around 55-60%, but struggles more in 3rd grade math and reading, as well as 5th grade science and social studies. Nearby schools, such as Wilmore Elementary School and Rosenwald Dunbar Elementary School, consistently outperform Hattie C. Warner Elementary, which may be partly attributable to its higher poverty rate compared to these nearby schools.

Warner is a fantastic school! Both of my daughters have loved every minute of their time there. The teachers are loving and caring. They have high expectations for the students, too. Everyone at Warner is so welcoming. We love Warner! Close Quote

The school was so misguided that we moved to Lexington ,just to save our son from the poor education he was receiving. Close Quote
