Summary:
The 42729 zip code is home to a single public elementary school, Cub Run Elementary School, which serves grades PK-8 and has an enrollment of 205 students. The school is part of the Hart County School District, which is ranked 100 out of 157 districts in Kentucky and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Cub Run Elementary School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from a 4-star rating in 2022-2023 to a 3-star rating in the following two years. The school's test scores are generally on par with or slightly above the Hart County and statewide averages in most subject areas and grade levels, but there are some notable exceptions, such as 7th grade reading proficiency being significantly lower than the county and state. The school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.0%, which is likely contributing to its lower test scores in some areas.
With 60% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Cub Run Elementary serves a population with a high level of economic need. The school's relatively high per-student spending of $20,281 may be an effort to provide additional resources and support for these students. The school's student-teacher ratio of 12.6 is relatively low, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention and support for students.
