Best Public Schools in Jetmore, KS

Summary:

The city of Jetmore, Kansas is home to two schools: Hodgeman County Elementary and Hodgeman County High. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and are part of the Hodgeman County school district.

Hodgeman County Elementary has consistently ranked in the top half of Kansas elementary schools over the past three years and outperforms the state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics assessments. The school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.8, which may contribute to its academic success. In contrast, Hodgeman County High has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from 50th out of 324 schools in 2021-2022 to 204th out of 327 schools in 2022-2023, despite generally higher performance on English Language Arts and Mathematics assessments compared to the state averages.

While Hodgeman County High spends more per student ($13,752) than Hodgeman County Elementary ($11,101), the high school has a significantly lower student-teacher ratio of 8.9, suggesting that the higher spending may be directed towards smaller class sizes or more personalized instruction. However, the higher free and reduced lunch rate at Hodgeman County Elementary (45.66%) compared to Hodgeman County High (34.48%) may indicate potential equity concerns for the district.
