Summary

Clear Creek Elementary is a public elementary school in Shelbyville, Kentucky, serving 426 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Shelby County School District, which is ranked 125 out of 157 districts in the state.

Clear Creek Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Kentucky elementary schools, with academic performance significantly below the Shelby County and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the percentage of students proficient or better in Mathematics ranged from 25% to 32% at Clear Creek, compared to 37% to 41% for Shelby County and 43% to 44% for Kentucky. The school also has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 13% to 28% over the past few years, much higher than the state average.

Interestingly, the nearby Heritage Elementary, Simpsonville Elementary, and Painted Stone Elementary schools in the Shelby County district generally outperform Clear Creek Elementary on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates and better statewide rankings. This suggests that factors beyond just funding, which is relatively high at Clear Creek, may be contributing to the performance differences.
