In contrast, Christa McAuliffe Academy lags behind, ranking in the 400-440 range among Kansas elementary schools and earning a 2-star rating. Meadowlark Elementary falls in the middle, ranking in the top 60-230 schools in the state.
The performance gap between the schools is notable, with Wheatland's students significantly outperforming their peers at Christa McAuliffe across all subject areas and grade levels, despite the higher per-student spending at Christa McAuliffe. The free/reduced lunch rate appears to be a key factor, with Wheatland having the lowest rate and Christa McAuliffe the highest. Other factors, such as teacher quality and school leadership, may also play a role in the disparities observed among these 67230 zip code schools.
