Summary

W B Muncy Elementary School in Wooton, Kentucky, serves 209 students in prekindergarten through grade 8. Its latest results show a strong school overall, with SchoolDigger placing it in the 81st percentile statewide. The clearest takeaway is that social studies and editing and mechanics are standout strengths: the school’s averages in grades 5 and 8 were 68% and 73%, respectively, well above state averages of 39% and 45%.

Those strengths also show up against nearby schools: W B Muncy’s grade 8 social studies and editing and mechanics results were 26 and 34 points above nearby-school averages, respectively. Upper-grade reading is another bright spot: grade 7 scored 79% and grade 8 scored 72%, above state and district results and nearby-school averages. The picture is less even in math. Grade 3 scored 40%, below the district’s 55%, the state’s 43%, and the nearby-school average of 43%; grades 6 and 7 were stronger, at 65% and 62%. Chronic absenteeism is a concern to watch: 38% of students were chronically absent in 2025–2026, above the state’s 24% but below the district’s 45%.

Results remain strong, but the school’s standing has eased from its recent peak. SchoolDigger ranks W B Muncy 129th of 684 schools, at the 81st percentile and with 4 stars for 2025–2026, down from the 95th percentile in 2023–2024. It ranks behind nearby Robinson Elementary School, Stinnett Elementary School, and Viper Elementary School, but ahead of six other nearby ranked schools. SchoolDigger’s Male Students ranking is notably lower: the group is at the 65th percentile, compared with 81st overall, and fell 25 points in one year. In 2024–2025, 60% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; only one of ten nearby schools reporting the same measure had a lower share. The student–teacher ratio was 15.6 in 2024–2025, above the nearby-school average of 14.6. Some test comparisons cover only grades with reported results.

What people are saying

by a parent
Friday, October 30, 2009

My child has attended WB Muncy Elementary for 2 years, and I certainly believe that it is a nurturing environment that is very conducive to the learning process. He has been well taken care of in every aspect: physically, educationally and socially. It takes a special concentrated effort by my family for my child to attend this school, we have to drive on a horrible road for a long way to get him there and back home. It has been worth the effort. Close Quote
