Stucky Middle School

Summary:

Stucky Middle School is a public middle school in Wichita, Kansas, serving 585 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Wichita school district, which is ranked 252 out of 266 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Stucky Middle School has consistently ranked in the bottom third of Kansas middle schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 317 out of 362 schools and a 1-star rating.

Stucky Middle School's academic performance is a significant concern, with students consistently underperforming compared to the Wichita district and the state of Kansas in standardized test scores across all grades and subjects. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 17.93% of Stucky students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 19.95% in Wichita and 33.55% statewide. In mathematics, only 12.14% of Stucky students were proficient or better, compared to 14.47% in Wichita and 31.6% statewide. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with relatively stronger results for Hispanic and African American students, but much lower performance for White and low-income students.

Stucky Middle School's challenges extend beyond academic performance. The school has a very high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 65.35% to 72.14% over the past three school years, significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's spending per student, at $12,943 in the 2018-2019 school year, is higher than the state average, suggesting that additional resources are being directed to the school, but with limited academic impact. Compared to nearby schools, such as Allison Traditional Magnet Middle and Robinson Middle School, Stucky Middle School's performance is generally lower, indicating that the challenges faced by the school are not solely due to its district or geographic location, but rather specific to the school itself.

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.

Open Quote Worst school in KS, need police at this school. Good teachers terrible students. I removed my child. I feared for her life everyday. The boe should step in and get some authority at this school before someone gets hurt bad. Close Quote

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.
