Best Public Schools in Williamsburg, KS

Summary:

The city of Williamsburg, Kansas has only one public school, Williamsburg Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. While the data set is limited to this single school, it provides a comprehensive look at the school's performance, demographics, and resources compared to the West Franklin school district and the state of Kansas.

Williamsburg Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kansas elementary schools, with a ranking between 441-488 out of 653-668 schools over the past 3 years. The school's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in KAP (Kansas Assessment Program) tests, is generally below the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (48.04% in 2022-2023), indicating a higher proportion of students from low-income families.

Despite the school's underperformance, it has a relatively high per-student spending of $14,926 for the 2018-2019 school year, which is higher than the state average. The school also has a low student-teacher ratio of 12:1, suggesting a potentially favorable learning environment. However, these resources do not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes for the students, and further investigation into the school's specific challenges, teaching practices, and resource allocation may be necessary to address the observed performance gaps.
