Summary:
Schools in ZIP code 41051 include six schools: four elementary schools, one middle school and one high school, serving students across elementary, middle and high school grades. In 2025–2026, 49 of 66 reported school results were above the state, two matched it and 15 were below; the average advantage was 7 points. The most important finding is that this positive area-wide picture masks meaningful differences from one school to another.
Kenton Elementary School and Twenhofel Middle School stand out most: their average results were 17 and 16 points above the state, respectively. Kenton led its elementary peers in six of ten comparisons, including 5th-grade Writing, where it scored 70%—47 points above White’s Tower Elementary School’s 23%. Twenhofel led Summit View Academy in all ten shared comparisons, with school-to-school gaps ranging from 1 to 25 points. At the other end, Beechgrove Elementary School averaged essentially at the state level, slightly below it; White’s Tower averaged 1 point above, Summit View 8 points above, and Simon Kenton High School 5 points above.
Results changed unevenly from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: Beechgrove and Simon Kenton rose by an average of 3 points, Twenhofel by 1, while White’s Tower fell by 4 and Summit View by 3; Kenton Elementary was essentially unchanged. Some swings were larger, including a 19-point drop for Summit View’s 8th-grade Editing and Mechanics and a 20-point rise for Beechgrove’s 5th-grade Writing. SchoolDigger ranks Kenton 77th of 684 elementary schools (89th percentile) and Twenhofel 45th of 326 middle schools (86th percentile). Other measures do not form a simple pattern: Beechgrove’s 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible rate was 64% and its student-teacher ratio was 14, while Kenton’s rate was 39% and ratio was 15.4; these figures are context, not explanations of results.
