Summary:

ZIP code 42285 has one listed school, Kyrock Elementary School, serving prekindergarten through grade 4 and enrolling 334 students in Edmonson County. In 2025–26, its reported proficiency rates ranged from 57% to 65% across grades 3 and 4 in reading and math; its grade 4 science result is suppressed. The most important finding for families is that Kyrock was above the state proficiency rate in all four reported math and reading comparisons.

There is no local top-or-bottom school comparison because Kyrock is the only school in the list. Within its reported results, math was its strongest comparison with the state: Kyrock was 65% proficient in grade 3 math versus 43% statewide, a 22-point advantage, and 63% versus 43% in grade 4, a 20-point advantage. Grade 4 reading was the weakest comparison: Kyrock’s 57% was 7 points above the state’s 50%, but 3 points below the district’s 60%. Grade 3 reading was 65%, 16 points above the state and 1 point above the district.

Kyrock’s proficiency rates fell from 2024–25 to 2025–26 while state results mostly held steady: math declined 8 points in grade 3 and 3 points in grade 4, while reading declined 15 and 7 points, respectively. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking also moved down, from 8th of 685 schools (99th percentile, 5 stars) in 2023–24 to 85th of 684 (88th percentile, 4 stars) in 2025–26. Other context includes a 14.3 student–teacher ratio and 70% free/reduced lunch eligible (school year 2024–25); these figures do not explain the test results. The list has only one school, the grade 4 science score is suppressed, and the year-to-year results compare grade-level outcomes rather than following the same students over time.
