Summary:

The 40204 zip code area of Louisville, Kentucky is home to a single high school, Breckinridge Metropolitan High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. Despite the school's small size and low student-teacher ratio, its academic performance is significantly below the Jefferson County district and Kentucky state averages.

Breckinridge Metropolitan High School has a student enrollment of just 92 and is ranked 284 out of 290 high schools in the state. While the school boasts a high four-year graduation rate of 93.5%, its students perform well below their peers on ACT English, Math, and Reading assessments. The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.0%, which may be contributing to the low test scores.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $62,798, its academic outcomes do not reflect this investment. The school serves a student population that faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with 68.48% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Addressing the root causes of the school's underperformance, such as attendance issues and resource allocation, could be crucial in supporting the academic success of Breckinridge Metropolitan High School's students.
