L'Ouverture Computer Technology Magnet

Summary:

L'Ouverture Computer Technology Magnet is an elementary school in Wichita, Kansas that serves grades PK-5 and has 236 students enrolled. Despite being a magnet school focused on computer technology, L'Ouverture consistently ranks among the lowest-performing elementary schools in the state, with proficiency rates well below the Wichita and Kansas averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

L'Ouverture serves a high-needs student population, with 95.34% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, significantly higher than nearby schools. The school also spends only $11,843 per student, lower than the spending at most nearby schools, and has a higher student-teacher ratio of 11.9. These resource and staffing disparities may be contributing to the school's persistent academic challenges, as L'Ouverture has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Kansas elementary schools for the past decade with little to no improvement in proficiency rates.

While L'Ouverture is a magnet school, it significantly underperforms other magnet schools in the area, such as Riverside Leadership Magnet and Horace Mann Dual Language Magnet, which have higher academic proficiency rates and better overall performance. Addressing the resource and staffing disparities at L'Ouverture could be an important step in improving outcomes for its high-needs student population.

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.
