Emporia

Summary:

The Emporia school district in Kansas consists of 8 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the district, with some schools consistently outperforming others.

Timmerman Elementary stands out as the top-performing school, consistently scoring above the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics.
