Summary:
The 67443 zip code has only one school, Canton-Galva Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 and is part of the Canton-Galva District. This public elementary school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from a 2-star rating in 2023-2024 to a 1-star rating in 2022-2023, indicating its performance may be declining relative to other Kansas elementary schools.
Canton-Galva Elementary's proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts (38.02%), Mathematics (28.16%), and Science (30%) are all below the state averages, particularly in 5th grade where only 35% of students are proficient in ELA and 10% in Math. This suggests the school is struggling to provide effective instruction in these critical academic areas. Additionally, with 40.2% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a relatively high-need population, which may present additional challenges in terms of student support and resources.
Despite the school's higher-than-average spending of $11,787 per student, these investments do not appear to be translating into stronger academic performance based on the test score data. Overall, the analysis indicates that Canton-Galva Elementary is a struggling school that needs targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes and reverse its declining statewide ranking.
