Brookridge Elementary

Summary:

Brookridge Elementary is a public elementary school in Overland Park, Kansas, serving 549 students in grades PK-6. It is part of the Shawnee Mission Public School District, which is ranked 46 out of 266 districts in the state.

While Brookridge Elementary has a diverse student population, its academic performance is generally lower than the district and state averages, particularly in mathematics. The school's proficiency rates in the 2023-2024 school year were 44.35% in English Language Arts and 36.11% in Mathematics, compared to the district's 45.71% and 43.99%, and the state's 33.55% and 31.6%, respectively. Brookridge's performance is especially low in mathematics, with proficiency rates ranging from 25.37% in 6th grade to 50.62% in 3rd grade, compared to the district's 47.28% to 62.24% and the state's 29.74% to 50.23%.

Interestingly, while Tomahawk Elementary, Trailwood Elementary, and Briarwood Elementary consistently outperform Brookridge and the district as a whole, Brookridge Elementary has a higher student-teacher ratio and lower per-student spending compared to these nearby schools. This suggests that the school may need to address staffing and resource allocation to improve student learning and success.

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.
