Summary:
Zip code 41622 has one listed elementary school, Duff-Allen Central Elementary, serving prekindergarten through grade 8 with 376 students. Its 2025–2026 results vary considerably by subject and grade: its unweighted math average was 48%, compared with 41% statewide, while its Editing and Mechanics average was 28%, compared with 45% statewide. The clearest overall takeaway is that results are mixed, with stronger math and a pronounced weakness in Editing and Mechanics.
The school’s strongest individual state comparisons were in grade 7 math, where 62% were proficient versus 39% statewide, a 23-point advantage, and grade 8 writing, at 67% versus 48%, a 19-point advantage. Its weakest comparisons were grade 8 Editing and Mechanics, at 21% versus 42% statewide, and grade 5 writing, at 18% versus 35%—shortfalls of 21 and 17 points. Reading was close to the state average overall: 48.7% versus 49%. These differences mean families may see quite different results depending on the subject and grade.
Overall standing improved year over year, though it has not returned to its earlier high: SchoolDigger rated Duff-Allen Central at the 37th percentile, rank 433 of 684 Kentucky schools, with 2 stars in 2025–2026, up 7 percentile points and 45 rank positions from 2024–2025, but 3 percentile points below 2023–2024. That broad improvement masks sharp subject changes: grade 5 Editing and Mechanics rose from 21% to 35%, while grade 8 fell from 61% to 21%. As context, 81% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025, and the student-teacher ratio was 11.4:1; chronic absenteeism in 2025–2026 was 36%, versus 24% statewide and 35% in Floyd County. Because only one school is listed, there is no peer-school comparison for the area.
