Summary:
The 42746 zip code has only one school, Memorial Elementary School, a public school serving grades PK-8 with 341 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.
Memorial Elementary School's performance on most academic measures lags behind the Hart County district and the state of Kentucky as a whole. The school's proficiency rates in mathematics, reading, science, writing, social studies, and editing/mechanics are generally lower than the district and state averages. The school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.0%, which could be contributing to the lower academic performance. Despite the lower academic performance, the school appears to be investing a relatively high amount of funding per student ($14,343) and maintaining a reasonable student-teacher ratio (15.1:1).
The school serves a high-need population, with 75.66% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests the school may face additional challenges in supporting student learning and achievement. The school's performance has been relatively consistent over the past few years, with only minor fluctuations in proficiency rates, indicating the school may be facing persistent challenges that need to be addressed.
