Summary:
ZIP code 41171 has one Kentucky high school, Elliott County High School, serving grades 9–12 with 293 students. Its results offer a picture of one school, not a range of options across the ZIP code. Most importantly, in 2025–2026 its proficiency rate was below the state rate in all six reported subjects, by 8 to 23 percentage points.
There is no meaningful top-versus-bottom school comparison because Elliott County High School is the only school in the list. Within its results, reading was strongest at 41% proficient, compared with 49% statewide, while science was lowest at 8%, compared with 23% statewide. Writing had the largest state gap: 24% proficient at the school versus 47% statewide, a 23-point difference. The school’s six-subject average was 24%, compared with a state average of 39%.
Results weakened from the prior year: the school’s six-subject average fell from 29% in 2024–2025 to 24% in 2025–2026, while the average gap with the state widened from 10 to 16 points. Social studies and editing and mechanics each declined 13 points; no subject improved. SchoolDigger ranked the school 225th of 262 statewide in 2025–2026, at the 14th percentile with 1 star, down from 166th of 290 and the 43rd percentile in 2023–2024. Other measures are mixed: graduation was 96%, 2 points above the state, while chronic absenteeism was 50%, 26 points above it. As context, 64% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025, and the student–teacher ratio was 10.4 that year.
