Oaklawn Elementary

Summary:

Oaklawn Elementary is a public elementary school located in Wichita, Kansas, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 216 students. The school is part of the Derby school district, which is ranked 138 out of 266 districts in Kansas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Oaklawn Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kansas elementary schools, with a 1-star or 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average compared to other elementary schools in the state. The school's academic performance is significantly lower than the nearby schools within the Derby district, such as El Paso Elementary, Derby Hills Elementary, and Stone Creek Elementary, which consistently outperform Oaklawn in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency.

Oaklawn Elementary's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, ranging from 85.14% to 91.86% over the past few years, may be a contributing factor to its academic struggles. The school's low-performing subgroups, such as special education and white students, also present opportunities for targeted interventions and support systems to address the specific needs of its student population. Exploring ways to increase resource allocation and support for these students could be crucial in enhancing Oaklawn's overall academic performance and providing its students with the necessary tools to succeed.

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.
