Trimble County

The Trimble County school district in Kentucky consists of 3 schools: 2 elementary schools (Bedford Elementary and Milton Elementary) and 1 junior/senior high school (Trimble County Junior/Senior High School). Unfortunately, the data shows that all three schools are performing significantly below the state average on key metrics like standardized test scores and proficiency rates.

While Trimble County Junior/Senior High School has the highest statewide ranking among the three schools, it is still ranked in the bottom quarter of Kentucky high schools. The school's performance on standardized tests is alarmingly low, with proficiency rates ranging from just 12% to 36% across various subjects and grade levels. The two elementary schools, Bedford Elementary and Milton Elementary, also struggle academically, ranking in the bottom 10% of Kentucky elementary schools and having very low proficiency rates on state assessments.

The data suggests that the Trimble County school district is facing systemic challenges that are impacting student achievement across all three schools. High rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, coupled with consistently low performance and a lack of improvement over time, indicate that the district may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation and support strategies to better address the needs of its students. Addressing these underlying issues will be crucial for improving educational outcomes in the Trimble County school system.
