Summary

LaGrange Elementary School serves 450 students in grades K–5 in Oldham County, a district rated four stars by SchoolDigger and in the 89th statewide percentile. The school’s results are uneven: fifth-grade writing is a standout, while science and several math and reading results are weak compared with nearby Oldham County schools.

Writing is LaGrange’s clearest strength: in 2025–2026, 80% of fifth-graders were proficient, versus 56% in Oldham County and 35% statewide; the result was higher than the 25%–75% range at nearby schools. Across tested grades, writing averaged 80%, compared with 51% for the seven nearby Oldham schools. Science is the clearest weakness: fourth-grade proficiency was 29%, versus 51% districtwide and 40% statewide, and the nearby Oldham schools averaged 53%. Math also lagged nearby peers: LaGrange averaged 42%, compared with 55% for those schools, 57% districtwide and 43% statewide. Reading averaged 52%—above the 50% state result but below the 63% nearby-school average and 64% districtwide.

SchoolDigger’s overall ranking fell from the 79th percentile in 2021–2022 to the 60th percentile in 2025–2026, when the school received three stars. Over that period, math, reading and science averages declined, while writing remained at 80%. Context includes an 11.5 student-teacher ratio and, in 2024–2025, 57% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch; nearby Oldham schools ranged from 14% to 34% on that measure. SchoolDigger’s statewide group rankings also differ notably: Hispanic Students ranked in the 92nd percentile in 2025–2026, up from the 65th percentile the year before, while Special Education Students ranked in the 25th percentile, down from the 48th percentile in each of the prior two years. These rankings compare the school’s effectiveness for each group with statewide results for that group.
