Jonathan Elementary...the best elementary school any kid could dream of going to. Why? This is because of the amazing, wonderful adults who run the school. The principal, the teachers, and even the parents help. The kids there can feel safe and have fun while they are taking so much knowledge into their brains. I recently graduated fom that school and I thank the Lord he sent me there. Other than history, you learn life lessons that will help you later on in life. In 5th grade, Mrs.Carol was my teacher. She was an Amazing teacher to my class. We got very lucky. -Patience LeViere

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Kentucky used the Kentucky Core Content Tests (KCCT) to assess students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 through 12 in reading, social studies, science, writing, and math. The Elementary School results displayed on GreatSchools profiles are for grades 3 through 5 combined for each subject. Middle School results are for grades 6 though 8 combined, and High School results are for grades 10 though 12 combined. The KCCT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Kentucky.
