Summary

Robertson County School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in Mount Olivet, Kentucky, with 459 students in the Robertson County school district. The school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low-income student population.

Robertson County School stands out for its consistently high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 92.2% to 100% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average. The school also has very low dropout rates, ranging from 0% to 1.3%, better than the state average. However, the school faces challenges with relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.3% to 28%, which may be contributing to its lower test scores compared to the state averages across various subjects and grade levels. The school's spending per student is relatively high, ranging from $16,693 to $20,946 in recent years, higher than the state average, but this does not seem to be translating into significantly better academic outcomes.

Interestingly, the nearby Augusta Independent School, also an alternative school, appears to have somewhat better test scores in certain subject areas, such as mathematics and reading, compared to Robertson County School. This could be an opportunity for Robertson County School to learn from the practices and strategies of its neighboring school to improve its academic performance and better support its students.
