Stanley Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of Kansas elementary schools, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are significantly lower than the Wichita district and state averages across all grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 20.62% of Stanley Elementary students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 19.95% in Wichita and 33.55% statewide.

While the nearby schools in the Wichita district, such as Enders STEM and Leadership Magnet, Kelly Liberal Arts Academy, and Gardiner Elementary, also perform poorly compared to the state average, they generally outperform Stanley Elementary in academic metrics. This suggests that Stanley Elementary may be facing systemic challenges that are not being adequately addressed, such as resource constraints, teacher quality, or student engagement issues.

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.
