Summary:
The 41230 zip code area in Kentucky is home to three elementary schools: Louisa East Elementary School, Louisa West Elementary School, and Fallsburg Elementary School. These schools serve students in grades K-5 and are part of the Lawrence County school district.
Among the three schools, Fallsburg Elementary stands out as the highest-performing, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and a statewide ranking of 263 out of 685 Kentucky elementary schools. Fallsburg has the lowest dropout rate at 1.1% and the smallest student-teacher ratio at 11.1, allowing for more individualized attention. Additionally, Fallsburg students outperform the county and state averages on many of the KSA test subjects, including mathematics, reading, science, and writing.
In contrast, Louisa East Elementary appears to be the weakest performer, ranking lower statewide and struggling to meet county and state averages on most test subjects. All three schools, however, share a concerning 25.0% chronic absenteeism rate, which is higher than the state average. The significant differences in free/reduced lunch rates and per-student spending across the schools also suggest socioeconomic disparities that may be contributing to the observed performance gaps.
