Summary:
The Turner-Kansas City school district in Kansas is home to two high schools: Turner High and Beyond the Bell. While both schools serve high school students, the data analysis reveals that neither school is a standout performer, with Turner High consistently ranking in the bottom 10% of Kansas high schools over the past three years.
Turner High's academic performance is significantly below the state average, with only 13.09% of 10th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 27.57%. Additionally, the school has a very high free/reduced lunch rate of 71.22%, indicating a high percentage of students from low-income families. Despite the school's challenges, it spends slightly above the state average per student and has a student-teacher ratio slightly higher than the state average.
Beyond the Bell is a virtual high school with only 15 students, making it difficult to analyze its performance. However, the school does have a lower free/reduced lunch rate of 20%, which is still higher than the state average. Overall, the data suggests that the Turner-Kansas City school district is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students, and targeted interventions and support may be necessary to improve educational outcomes and opportunities for the community.
