Summary:

The 40067 zip code is home to a single standout elementary school, Simpsonville Elementary, which consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Shelby County and the state of Kentucky. With a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, Simpsonville Elementary demonstrates strong overall performance, significantly outperforming the county and state averages on standardized test scores across multiple subjects and grade levels.

Simpsonville Elementary's students exhibit high proficiency rates on the Kentucky State Assessments, with 47-70% scoring proficient or better in reading, 47-64% in math, and 40-51% in other subjects like science and writing. However, the school's 25.0% chronic absenteeism rate in 2024-2025 is an area of concern that should be addressed. Despite this, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 16.9 suggests a focus on individualized attention, and its high per-student spending of $13,704 in 2023-2024 indicates a significant investment in resources and staffing to support student learning.

Overall, Simpsonville Elementary stands out as a high-performing elementary school that is providing a quality education to its students. The school's strong academic performance, efficient use of resources, and focus on individualized attention make it a model for other schools in the region to aspire to.
