Summary:
The 40422 zip code area in Kentucky is home to 3 elementary schools: Woodlawn Elementary School, Edna L. Toliver Intermediate School, and Mary G. Hogsett Primary School. These schools serve students in grades K-5 and are located in the Boyle County and Danville Independent school districts.
Among the three schools, Woodlawn Elementary School stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking among the top 11% of elementary schools in Kentucky over the past 3 years and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Woodlawn's students significantly outperform their peers in the Danville district on standardized tests across multiple subjects, with proficiency rates 15-40 percentage points above state averages. In contrast, the two Danville Independent schools, Edna L. Toliver Intermediate and Mary G. Hogsett Primary, perform well below the state averages and are ranked in the bottom 15-20% of Kentucky elementary schools, with 1-star ratings from SchoolDigger.
Despite the Danville schools spending significantly more per student than Woodlawn, they are performing much worse, indicating that simply spending more money does not necessarily translate to better educational outcomes. The high rates of free/reduced lunch eligibility at the Danville schools suggest they serve predominantly economically disadvantaged student populations, which likely contributes to their lower academic performance. Across all three schools, the chronic absenteeism rate of 25% is an area that needs improvement district-wide.
