Summary:
There is only one middle school located in Riverton, Kansas - Riverton Middle School. This public school serves grades 6-8 and is part of the Riverton School District. Based on the available data, Riverton Middle School appears to be a low-performing school, ranking 300 out of 362 Kansas middle schools for the 2023-2024 school year and holding a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Riverton Middle School's academic performance is significantly below the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science across all grade levels. The school's proficiency rates are 15-20 percentage points lower than the state's, suggesting a substantial achievement gap. Additionally, over 57% of the school's students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty student population, which can present additional challenges in terms of student learning and success.
Despite the school's low performance, its per-student spending of $10,972 is not particularly high, which may contribute to the challenges the school is facing. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.9 students per teacher. Overall, the data suggests that Riverton Middle School is struggling to improve student outcomes and will likely require a comprehensive approach involving increased resources, targeted interventions, and a focus on improving teaching and learning to address the significant performance gaps.
