Best Public Schools in Zip Code 66024

Summary:

The 66024 zip code area is home to two elementary schools - Riverside Primary School and Riverside Intermediate.

Riverside Intermediate has moved up in the statewide ranking, from 269th out of 668 Kansas elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 244th out of 653 in 2023-2024. This indicates the school is making progress and performing better relative to other elementary schools in the state.

While both schools have similar per-student spending and student-teacher ratios, the difference in these metrics may contribute to the academic performance differences between the two schools. Additionally, the lower Mathematics proficiency rates at Riverside Intermediate compared to the state average could be an area of focus for the school to improve overall academic outcomes.
