Uniontown High School has experienced fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from a high of 29th out of 326 Kansas high schools in 2014-2015 to a low of 284th out of 327 in 2022-2023. The school's performance has been inconsistent, with significant drops in recent years, indicating potential areas for improvement. While the school has performed relatively well for low socioeconomic status students, it has struggled with the academic performance of other student subgroups, such as white students and female students. Uniontown High School's academic proficiency rates in subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally below the state averages, which may be influenced by the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 53.17% to 62.89%.

Compared to nearby schools like Fort Scott Senior High and Marmaton Valley High, Uniontown High School is performing relatively worse in terms of statewide ranking, academic proficiency rates, and socioeconomic factors. This comparison highlights the need for Uniontown High School to learn from the practices and strategies employed by its higher-performing counterparts to improve its overall performance and provide a more equitable and effective educational experience for its students.

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.
