Summary

Fallsburg Elementary School in Louisa, Kentucky, serves 190 students from prekindergarten through grade 8, with several nearby schools offering points of comparison. Its results vary by grade and subject: the strongest standouts are in social studies and writing, while sixth-grade math is a clear concern. In 2025–2026, fifth-grade social studies proficiency was 72% and eighth-grade writing was 75%, compared with just 24% proficiency in sixth-grade math.

Fallsburg stands out in social studies, writing and reading, but its math results are uneven. Fifth-grade social studies was 72%, versus 38% in both Lawrence County and the state, and an average of 37% at nearby schools with reported results. Eighth-grade writing reached 75%, 22 points above the district and 27 above the state. Reading also exceeded the state in grades 3–5; seventh-grade reading was 67%, compared with 50% statewide and 42% in the district. By contrast, sixth-grade math was 24%—23 points below the district and 18 below the state. Eighth-grade math was much stronger at 69%, above the district’s 32% and the state’s 39%.

Fallsburg’s overall standing has improved over time, though results still shift by year and subject. SchoolDigger ranked it at the 68th percentile in Kentucky in 2025–2026, with 3 stars; its percentile rose from 16 in 2015–2016, and it was second among nearby schools with a ranking that year, behind Star Elementary School. Chronic absenteeism also declined, from 37% in 2022–2023 to 16% in 2025–2026, below the district’s 30% and state’s 24%. In 2024–2025, the student-teacher ratio was 9.0:1, compared with a 13.2:1 average at nearby schools; 67% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, close to the nearby-school average of 65%. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves male students rose from the 31st percentile in 2023–2024 to the 77th in 2025–2026, above its overall 68th-percentile standing. Grade-level results can vary considerably at a school with 190 students, so individual scores are best read as part of this broader pattern.
