Summary:
The Haysville school district in Kansas is home to 6 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. While the schools generally perform below the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, a few standout schools emerge from the data. Oatville Elementary and Nelson Elementary are the top-performing schools in the district, with proficiency rates often exceeding the Kansas state averages. Oatville Elementary has the highest statewide school ranking and the best Mathematics proficiency rates, while Nelson Elementary has the highest English Language Arts proficiency.
The data also reveals a significant disparity in academic performance among the Haysville elementary schools. While the top-performing schools are excelling, Prairie Elementary School stands out as the lowest-performing, with proficiency rates significantly below the Haysville and Kansas averages. This disparity may be linked to the high free and reduced lunch rates, which range from 52.12% to 66.74% across the district, indicating a significant population of students from low-income families.
The data also highlights the importance of resource allocation, as the spending per student varies from $8,285 to $11,153 across the Haysville elementary schools. Further analysis would be needed to determine the specific impact of funding on academic outcomes, but the data provides an opportunity for the district to identify the needs of underperforming schools and implement targeted interventions to improve student success.
