Data showed that Early Learning Center welcomed 38 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, Hispanic or Latino students comprised 13.2% of the student body to be the third most represented ethnicity in the school.
The school is located in Erlanger-Elsmere Independent School District with a central office in Erlanger.
Among the eight schools in Erlanger-Elsmere Independent School District, Lloyd High School recorded the highest enrollment of Hispanic or Latino students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 90 students.
Despite escaping some of the pandemic's educational disruptions, Kentucky's achievement gaps have remained an issue since 2019. In the eighth-grade reading assessments, for example, Hispanic students scored eight points lower than their white peers, and the gap reached 15 points in math. Black students fared even worse, falling more than 20 points behind and facing a failure rate nearly double that of their white counterparts.
Data also shows that between 2019 and 2023, there was an increase of 260% in the number of available teaching posts in Kentucky schools. This often leads to larger class sizes, combining programs, and retaining staff despite potential negative impacts on teacher working conditions.
