Catlettsburg Elementary School

Summary:

Catlettsburg Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Catlettsburg, Kentucky, with 209 students. The school is part of the Boyd County School District, which is ranked 91 out of 159 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, Catlettsburg Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kentucky elementary schools over the past several years, with a 1-star rating for most of the recent school years.

Catlettsburg Elementary School faces significant challenges in academic achievement, with consistently low proficiency rates in Mathematics and Reading compared to the Boyd County and Kentucky state averages. The school also struggles to support the academic achievement of various student subgroups, with rankings for female, male, white, special education, low socioeconomic status, and disabled students all in the bottom half or bottom third of Kentucky elementary schools. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 66.67% to 79.9% over the past few years, suggesting a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Ashland Independent and Russell Independent districts generally outperform Catlettsburg Elementary School in academic achievement, with several schools ranking in the top half or top third of Kentucky elementary schools, such as Ponderosa Elementary School and Poage Elementary School. Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, Catlettsburg Elementary School's ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, indicating that the school may need to implement significant improvements to reverse the downward trajectory.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
