Summary:

The 40207 zip code area of Louisville, Kentucky is home to three elementary schools: St. Matthews Elementary, Chenoweth Elementary, and Dunn Elementary. These schools serve students from kindergarten through 5th grade and are part of the Jefferson County school district.

Among the three schools, Dunn Elementary stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking among the best elementary schools in Kentucky with a statewide ranking of 141 out of 685 schools and a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. In comparison, St. Matthews Elementary and Chenoweth Elementary have lower statewide rankings and 2-star and 1-star ratings, respectively.

Dunn Elementary outperforms the other two schools and the Jefferson County and Kentucky averages in most subject areas and grade levels, with higher proficiency rates in both reading and math. However, all three schools have a chronic absenteeism rate of 25.0%, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, the schools have similar per-student spending, suggesting that funding alone may not be the primary driver of academic performance.
