Summary

Auburn Elementary School serves 760 students in prekindergarten through grade 8 in Auburn, Kentucky, in the Logan County area. Its results are generally above state and district averages, but that strength is not consistent across subjects: the clearest concern is fifth-grade writing, where 23% of students were proficient, compared with 35% statewide.

Social studies is Auburn’s strongest subject compared with the state: its grade 5 and 8 average was 57%, 19 percentage points above the state and 20 points above the district. Reading is also strong: the grades 3–8 average was 60%, 11 points above the state and 12 above the district; seventh-grade reading reached 73%, versus 50% statewide and 60% in the district. In grades 3–6, however, Rich Pond Elementary and Jody Richards Elementary averaged higher in both math and reading. Eighth-grade math was near the benchmarks at 40%, compared with 39% statewide and 41% in the district. Fifth-grade writing was also below the district’s 18%? No: Auburn’s 23% was 5 points above the district, though 12 below the state.

Several results have improved over time, including reading, up 9 points on average from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, and social studies, up 20 points; math was nearly flat, rising 2 points. Chronic absenteeism fell from 20% to 10% over that period. SchoolDigger ranks Auburn in the 69th statewide percentile and gives it 3 stars for 2025–2026; it ranks third among nine nearby schools with rankings. Auburn’s student-teacher ratio was 17.6:1 in 2024–2025, tied for the highest among nearby schools reporting a ratio, and 48% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s Special Education Students ranking rose from the 36th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 71st in 2025–2026, indicating stronger relative results for this group.
