Summary:
The city of Saint Marys, Kansas is home to two schools - St Marys Elementary and St. Marys Junior Senior High. Both schools are part of the Kaw Valley school district, which ranks 154 out of 266 districts in the state.
Based on the data, St Marys Elementary appears to be the standout school, consistently ranking in the top half of Kansas elementary schools over the past 3 years. The school's test scores are generally higher than the district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Science. In contrast, St. Marys Junior Senior High has seen more middling performance, with a current ranking of 210 out of 318 Kansas high schools.
The data reveals a significant gap in academic performance between the elementary and high school, with the elementary school outperforming the high school on state assessments. This difference may be influenced by socioeconomic factors, as the elementary school serves a more economically advantaged student population. Additionally, the high school's declining performance over time and relatively low test scores, especially in Math and English Language Arts, suggest areas for improvement and targeted interventions to help raise student achievement.
