Burlingame Elementary

Summary:

Burlingame Elementary is a public elementary school located in Burlingame, Kansas, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 145 students. The school is part of the Burlingame Public School District, which is ranked 226 out of 266 districts in Kansas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Burlingame Elementary has seen a significant decline in its statewide ranking and performance on state assessments over the past several years. In 2023-2024, only 22.63% of Burlingame Elementary students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 26.8% for the district and 33.55% for the state. The school's performance for its White student population and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds has been uneven, with the White student population showing a more pronounced decline in performance. Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending, the school's academic outcomes suggest that these factors alone may not be sufficient to drive improved student performance.

When compared to nearby schools, Farley Elementary and Indian Hills Elementary, both part of the Auburn-Washburn District, consistently outperform Burlingame Elementary on state assessments and have higher statewide rankings. Other nearby schools, such as Mission Valley Elementary and Lyndon Elementary, have performance levels that are more comparable to Burlingame Elementary, suggesting that the challenges faced by Burlingame may be shared by other schools in the region.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
