Summary:
The Stanton County school district in Kansas operates two schools: Stanton County Elementary and Stanton County Junior/Senior High School. Both schools have consistently underperformed compared to state averages, with low rankings and 2-star ratings from SchoolDigger.
Stanton County Elementary is ranked 446 out of 653 Kansas elementary schools, while Stanton County Junior/Senior High School is ranked 187 out of 318 Kansas high schools. Both schools perform below the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels. The high free and reduced lunch rates, 62.07% at the elementary school and 57.59% at the junior/senior high, indicate a high level of economic disadvantage among the student populations.
Despite the relatively high spending per student, at over $12,700 per student, and lower student-teacher ratios, the schools' performance remains low. This suggests systemic challenges that need to be addressed, potentially through targeted interventions, professional development, or community partnerships. While the data paints a concerning picture, there may be opportunities for the Stanton County school district to identify and address the root causes of the low performance and improve educational outcomes for the students.
