Syracuse

The Syracuse school district in Kansas consists of two schools - Syracuse Elementary and Syracuse High. Both schools are underperforming compared to state averages, with declining statewide rankings and test scores below the Kansas standards.

Syracuse Elementary is ranked 454 out of 653 Kansas elementary schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in English, Math, and Science are consistently below state averages across all grade levels. Similarly, Syracuse High is ranked 242 out of 318 Kansas high schools and has a 1-star rating, with particularly low 10th-grade Math proficiency.

Both schools face socioeconomic challenges, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite relatively low student-teacher ratios and moderate per-student spending, the schools are still struggling to improve academic outcomes. The Syracuse school district will need to address these issues and implement comprehensive improvement efforts to raise student achievement and meet state performance standards.
