Summary:
Thunder Ridge Schools has only one elementary school, Thunder Ridge Elementary, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. Located in Kansas, the school stands out for its exceptional mathematics performance, with proficiency rates significantly higher than the district and state averages. However, the school's English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates are lower than the district and state, suggesting an area for improvement.
Thunder Ridge Elementary has a relatively high percentage of students (45.65%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-income families. The school also has a relatively high spending per student of $15,960 and a low student-teacher ratio of 7.7, suggesting a significant investment in resources and small class sizes that could potentially contribute to more personalized attention and support for students.
While Thunder Ridge Elementary excels in mathematics, the lower ELA proficiency rates are an area of concern that warrants further investigation. The school's unique characteristics, such as high spending per student and small class sizes, could be leveraged to address the performance gap and provide a well-rounded education for all students.
