Gordon Parks Academy

Summary:

Gordon Parks Academy is a public magnet elementary school in Wichita, Kansas that serves grades PK-8. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Kansas elementary schools over the past decade, with significant underperformance compared to the Wichita district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

Gordon Parks Academy serves a high-need student population, with 90.15% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11:1 and higher per-student spending than nearby schools, these resources have not translated into improved academic outcomes. The school's performance for specific student subgroups, such as African American and Hispanic students, is also mixed compared to the state. Nearby Spaght Multimedia Magnet, Irving Elementary, and Cloud Elementary schools also perform poorly, suggesting systemic issues within the Wichita school district.

In contrast, Horace Mann Dual Language Magnet, another magnet school in the district, outperforms Gordon Parks Academy across most metrics, including test scores and student demographics. This indicates that the magnet school model can be effective in improving student outcomes, but the implementation at Gordon Parks Academy has not been as successful. Addressing the systemic issues within the district and implementing more effective strategies at the school level will be crucial for improving the educational outcomes at Gordon Parks Academy.

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.

The school itself and teachers are amazing. There are some really mean students there that do target and bully others. The teachers try to do the best that they can, but I actually blame the parents that raise those kids. The teachers are working hard to put Gordon Parks on the map as an amazing and innovative school. They offer the kids opportunities they would not get in other schools. The school pushes programs like second step and avid to help students mature and develop good study skills to take on to high school. I have been very happy with the school and culture. I just wish parents would work harder to raise children who support each other instead of being so mean. Close Quote

Gordon Parks Academy has changed it focus to become a Media Art STEM school where students focus on Photography, Film and Audio production. We also have robotics where our all of our team qualified for state and three of them for nationals (We only have four teams). Currently we have a waiting list for students to enroll in our middle school and we are a feeder school to Northeast High Magnet School. We've also partnered with Wichita State University where we work with Shocker studios to help our students who would like to earn a degree in any of the media arts field. The school may have has a bad reputation is the past but this has change for the better. 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.
