Lewis

The Lewis school district in Kansas has only one school, Lewis Elementary, which serves grades PK-6 with an enrollment of 75 students. The school has consistently performed well below the state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency rates across multiple grade levels and school years, ranking in the bottom half of Kansas elementary schools.

Lewis Elementary faces significant challenges, with 61.33% of its students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a population with substantial socioeconomic challenges. Despite the school's small size and high student-teacher ratio of 7.5 to 1, it has been unable to improve its academic performance over the past three school years. The school's overall proficiency rates in ELA and Mathematics were 22.22% and 19.99%, respectively, compared to the state averages of 33.55% and 31.6%.

While the school's 5th grade Science proficiency rate of 40% was higher than the state's 45.03%, the consistently low performance in ELA and Mathematics across multiple grade levels suggests that Lewis Elementary may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to support student learning and achievement. The data paints a concerning picture of the school's academic challenges and the potential need for significant improvements to provide a quality education for its students.
