Uniontown

The Uniontown school district in Kansas consists of two schools - West Bourbon Elementary and Uniontown High School. While West Bourbon Elementary is a standout performer, ranking in the top 17% of Kansas elementary schools, Uniontown High School is struggling, ranking in the bottom 20% of high schools statewide.

West Bourbon Elementary has maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three years and outperforms the Uniontown district and the state of Kansas in proficiency rates for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. In contrast, Uniontown High School has a low 1-star rating and significantly lower proficiency rates compared to the district and state averages.

The data suggests a significant disparity in academic performance between the elementary and high school in Uniontown. While the reasons for this gap are not entirely clear, factors such as differences in student demographics, teaching quality, or resource allocation between the two schools may be contributing to the discrepancy. Further analysis would be needed to understand the root causes and address the performance issues at Uniontown High School.
