Alexandria Educational Center

Summary:

Alexandria Educational Center is a public virtual high school serving grades 6-12 in Alexandria, Kentucky, with a small enrollment of just 41 students. While the school is part of the Campbell County school district, which is ranked 49 out of 159 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating, Alexandria Educational Center stands out as an outlier in terms of academic performance compared to nearby high schools.

Despite a 100% four-year graduation rate, which is higher than the 97.2% rate at Campbell County High School, Alexandria Educational Center has significantly lower academic performance. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 0% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in ACT English and Reading, and just 13% were proficient in ACT Mathematics, much lower than the Campbell County and statewide averages. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 70.73% in the 2022-2023 school year, compared to 41.01% at Campbell County High School.

The virtual school model and the unique challenges it presents may be contributing factors to the low academic performance at Alexandria Educational Center. When compared to nearby high schools, such as Simon Kenton High School, Highlands High School, and Campbell County High School, Alexandria Educational Center stands out as an outlier, with lower test scores and a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students. Further investigation and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the educational needs of the students at this virtual school.

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.
