of 684 Kentucky Elementary Schools

Better than 12% of Kentucky elementary schools

Summary

Uniontown Elementary School serves 199 students in grades K–5 in Uniontown, Kentucky, and is the smallest of the seven nearby schools compared. Its clearest academic concern is mathematics: in 2025–2026, about 19% of students in grades 3–5 were proficient, compared with 29% in the district, 43% statewide, and about 41% at nearby schools. The gap is especially large in grades 4 and 5, where proficiency was 14% and 13%, respectively—29 and 30 points below the state.

Reading is the school’s strongest tested subject relative to its district, but it still trails state and nearby-school results. Across grades 3–5, about 42% were proficient in reading, 4 points above the Union County average of about 38%, but below the state’s 50% and the nearby-school average of about 47%. Other results are also low: fifth-grade social studies proficiency was 16%, below the district’s 22%, the state’s 38%, and every reported nearby-school result. In fifth-grade editing and mechanics, 19% were proficient, compared with 25% in the district, 48% statewide, and an average of 42% at nearby schools.

Recent trends diverge: math proficiency fell from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026 in grades 3, 4, and 5 by 6, 11, and 13 points, while reading rose 7 points in grade 3 and 11 points in grade 5. SchoolDigger ranked the school at the 12th percentile statewide, with 1 star, in 2025–2026; only Morganfield Elementary School ranked lower among the seven nearby schools. Other measures offer context: chronic absenteeism was 14% in 2025–2026, below the state’s 24%, and the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 12.8, lower than all but one nearby school. In 2024–2025, 62% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, close to the nearby-school average of 64%.
