John G. Carslie Is one of the best elementry schools in Covington, The teachers are hard working,caring and most important is that they care about their students. My grandson feel through the cracks at another public school on Covington. But at John G. The teachers worked with him and got him up to speed with his Math and Comprehension. I am not only so proud of my grandson who is on track. But mostly proud of the teachers and Mentors that helped him along the way. I tip my hands off to them and their giving talents. In educating the students of today . I grade them an A(t) Outstanding Renee Jackson Grandmother Cov,ky

I have been involved with this school for over 3 years. My sons attend and I have even taught there as a sub. I love it ! The teachers are so caring when it comes to your children and the staff is dedicated as well. For a person to say these teachers are not high caliber is an outrage. This school has lots of potential, we can make it great!

This school needs a lot of work, more active involvement that will help bring the students up to par, finding high calibur teachers who care about what happens to these sstudents, bring in programs that will help prepare these students to achieve at a higher level.

I absolutely loved when my daughter attended John G. The principle, Mrs. Collins is wonderful with her students. The teachers and staff are all caring, and very involved with the children. The secretary was always there should I have had questions. If we had not of moved back to OH, my daughter would still be attending there. My daughter loved John G and was sad when we left. I rate it a 10. Mrs. Bowman (Alexis H-S mommy)

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.
