Summary:
The 40006 zip code area is home to two public schools - Trimble County Junior/Senior High School and Bedford Elementary School, both of which are part of the Trimble County school district. Unfortunately, the data reveals that these schools are performing significantly below the state average in academic achievement and statewide rankings.
Neither Trimble County Junior/Senior High School nor Bedford Elementary School can be considered standout schools based on the available information. Trimble County Junior/Senior High School is ranked 210 out of 290 Kentucky high schools and has a 1-star rating, while Bedford Elementary School is ranked 623 out of 685 Kentucky elementary schools and has a 0-star rating. Both schools have consistently low rankings and ratings over the past few years, with test scores well below state averages across various subjects and grade levels.
The high free/reduced lunch rates at both schools, 53.76% at Trimble County Junior/Senior High School and 61.41% at Bedford Elementary School, suggest that the student population comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Despite the below-average performance, the schools appear to be spending more per student than the state average, raising questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources to improve student learning and achievement. Addressing the underlying factors, such as socioeconomic challenges and effective resource allocation, could be crucial in improving the educational outcomes for students in this region.
