Summary

Raceland-Worthington Middle School serves 391 students in grades 3–7 in Raceland, Kentucky. It is smaller than most of the nearby schools in this comparison, and its results vary considerably from grade to grade. The key takeaway is that its strong overall standing masks a clear contrast: grade 7 is a standout, while grade 4 math and science are weak spots.

Grade 7 is the school’s strongest point compared with nearby schools and the state: 53% of students were proficient in math, 63% in reading and 38% in science, leading nearby schools with reported results in all three subjects; each result was also above the state. Reading is especially strong in grades 6–7, averaging 59%, compared with a 46% average for nearby schools. Math is more mixed: the school averaged 44% in grades 6–7, ranking third among the six schools. Grade 4 math was 33%, 10 points below the state, and science was 27%, 13 points below. Across grades 3–7, math and reading averages were each about 1 point above the Raceland-Worthington Independent district; grade 5 writing was 7 points above the state.

Results have improved in some areas but not across the board: the grades 3–7 math average rose 6 points from 2022–23 to 2025–26, while reading fell 2 points; grade 7 science climbed 19 points, reaching 38%. SchoolDigger ranks the school 94th of 326 Kentucky schools, at the 71st percentile with four stars, the highest standing among the five nearby schools. That ranking has rebounded from the 28th percentile in 2023–24. In 2024–25, 47% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, and the student-teacher ratio was 15.6, below the nearby-school average of 16.2. Chronic absenteeism was 11% in 2025–26, compared with 24% statewide. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings also show a notable difference: the school ranked at the 50th percentile for male students, below its overall 71st, while its female-student ranking rose from the 24th to the 77th percentile between 2023–24 and 2025–26.
