Summary:

Flinthills Middle School is a public middle school located in Rosalia, Kansas, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 64 students. The school is part of the Flinthills District, which is ranked 52 out of 266 districts in Kansas and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Flinthills Middle School has shown fluctuating academic performance over the years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 33rd (2012-2013) to 228th (2022-2023) among Kansas middle schools. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (32.29%) and Mathematics (29.22%) are slightly above the state averages, and it outperforms the nearby El Dorado Middle School in both subjects. However, the school's performance for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds has been relatively lower, ranking 139th out of 296 Kansas middle schools in 2023-2024.

Flinthills Middle School has a higher student-teacher ratio and slightly lower per-student spending compared to El Dorado Middle School. These factors, along with the school's fluctuating academic performance and challenges in addressing the needs of its socioeconomically disadvantaged student population, suggest that Flinthills Middle School may need to focus on targeted interventions and specialized support programs to improve student outcomes. Nevertheless, the school's outperformance of a nearby middle school in core academic areas presents an opportunity for further investigation and potential sharing of best practices.

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.
