Daniel Boone Elementary School

Summary:

Daniel Boone Elementary School is a public elementary school in Richmond, Kentucky, serving 477 students in grades 1-5. The school is part of the Madison County School District, which is ranked 23 out of 159 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Daniel Boone Elementary has had a fluctuating statewide ranking, ranging from 318 out of 687 Kentucky elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 469 out of 700 in 2018-2019, its academic performance has been mixed. The school's proficiency rates in mathematics and writing have generally lagged behind the Madison County and Kentucky averages, particularly in 5th grade math where the school's proficiency rate was 26% compared to 43% for the district and 41% for the state. However, the school's reading proficiency rates have been closer to the district and state averages. Additionally, the school's performance has varied across different student subgroups, with Hispanic students performing relatively well but students with special needs and low socioeconomic status generally performing below average.

One interesting finding is that Boonesborough Elementary and Shannon Johnson Elementary, both within 12 miles of Daniel Boone, have consistently higher statewide rankings and outperformed Daniel Boone in most academic areas. This proximity to higher-performing schools, combined with the school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (over 57% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch), may be contributing factors to Daniel Boone's lower academic performance compared to the district and state averages.

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.
