Anthony Elementary

Summary:

Anthony Elementary is a public elementary school located in Leavenworth, Kansas, serving grades 1-4 with a total enrollment of 306 students. The school is part of the Leavenworth school district, which is ranked 247 out of 266 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite having higher per-student spending and a lower student-teacher ratio compared to other Leavenworth schools, Anthony Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Kansas elementary schools, with a ranking between 556-633 out of 653-678 schools over the past 9 years. The school's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics, is significantly below the state and district averages. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 22.13% of Anthony Elementary students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 33.55% statewide and 20.24% in the Leavenworth district.

The significant differences in performance between student subgroups at Anthony Elementary are noteworthy. While the school's African American and Hispanic students perform relatively well, the White students and students with special needs or low socioeconomic status struggle significantly. This suggests that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and support programs to address the specific needs of these underperforming subgroups. When compared to other nearby schools, such as Basehor Elementary, MacArthur Elementary, and the Fort Leavenworth schools, Anthony Elementary stands out as the lowest-performing school in the Leavenworth area.

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.
