Summary:

The 40258 zip code area of Louisville, Kentucky is home to 4 elementary schools: Eisenhower Elementary, Greenwood Elementary, Sanders Elementary, and Shacklette Elementary. These schools serve students from kindergarten through 5th grade and are part of the Jefferson County school district.

Among the 4 schools, Eisenhower Elementary stands out as the highest-performing, with the highest student enrollment, test scores that exceed county and state averages, and the lowest percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. In contrast, Greenwood Elementary and Sanders Elementary have the lowest statewide rankings, lowest test scores, and the highest percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Across all 4 schools, chronic absenteeism is a significant issue, with a rate of 25.0% - much higher than the state average. Additionally, the schools with the highest spending per student, Sanders Elementary and Greenwood Elementary, have the lowest test scores and statewide rankings, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to improving academic performance in these schools.
