Summary:
The 41653 zip code in Kentucky is home to a single middle school, James D. Adams Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kentucky middle schools and received poor performance ratings, indicating significant challenges in providing a quality education to its students.
James D. Adams Middle School's academic achievement is a major concern, with proficiency rates in core subjects like mathematics, reading, and science significantly lower than the county and state averages across all grade levels. The school's 8th grade mathematics proficiency rate of 34% is well below the county's 30% and the state's 40%. Additionally, the school's performance in science is particularly weak, with only 24% of 7th graders proficient or better, compared to the county's 20% and the state's 29%.
Socioeconomic factors may be contributing to the school's challenges, as it serves a student population with a high percentage (78.81%) of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.1 and per-student spending of $13,671, the data suggests that additional resources and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the significant academic achievement gaps and improve the overall performance of James D. Adams Middle School.
