Elementary Schools in Trego County

There is only one elementary school located in Trego County, Kansas - Trego Grade School. This school serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade and has consistently underperformed compared to state and county averages on standardized assessments.

Trego Grade School has ranked in the bottom half of Kansas elementary schools for the past few years, with only 32.91% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 20.11% proficient or better in Mathematics in the 2023-2024 school year. The school's science performance is also below the state average, with just 29.4% of students scoring proficient or better. Despite having a higher per-student spending of $13,416 in the 2018-2019 school year, the school's academic performance remains a concern, potentially due to the relatively high percentage of students (32.53%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year.

While Trego Grade School faces challenges in student achievement, the school's higher per-student spending and demographic factors suggest that further investigation into resource allocation and targeted interventions could be beneficial in addressing the performance issues.
