Summary:
The 41008 zip code area in Kentucky is home to three elementary schools: Cartmell Elementary, Kathryn Winn Primary, and Carroll County Childhood Development Center. Based on the available data, these schools appear to be underperforming compared to state and county benchmarks, with Cartmell Elementary ranking in the bottom 10% of Kentucky elementary schools.
Cartmell Elementary has the lowest statewide ranking and has received a 0 or 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger. Its proficiency rates on state assessments are significantly below state and county averages across all grade levels and subjects. The other two schools, Kathryn Winn Primary and Carroll County Childhood Development Center, do not have detailed performance data available, making it difficult to fully evaluate their quality. However, all three schools have high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25-26% in the most recent year.
Despite the challenges, the schools appear to have relatively low student-teacher ratios and high per-student spending, which could be potential advantages. However, these resources do not seem to be translating into better outcomes for the students. All three schools serve populations with very high rates of poverty, as indicated by the free/reduced lunch percentages, which suggests they face significant resource and support challenges. Significant improvements are needed to ensure students in this community have access to high-quality educational opportunities.
