Summary:
The 67752 zip code is home to two schools, Quinter Elementary and Quinter Junior-Senior High, both part of the Quinter Public Schools district. While both schools are part of the same district, which is ranked 92 out of 269 districts in Kansas and rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, the junior-senior high school stands out as the stronger performer, with consistently higher rankings and test scores compared to the elementary school.
Quinter Junior-Senior High outperforms the district and state averages in several subject areas, including 10th grade English Language Arts and 11th grade Science. The school also has a lower student-teacher ratio of 9.5 students per teacher, compared to 12.7 students per teacher at Quinter Elementary. Additionally, the junior-senior high school has a lower percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients (29.41%) compared to the elementary school (36.7%), indicating a lower proportion of economically disadvantaged students.
While both schools have a relatively homogeneous racial makeup, with over 90% white students, the district may want to consider addressing this lack of diversity, as exposure to different cultures and perspectives can be valuable for student development. The district should also examine the higher spending per student at the elementary school ($14,789) compared to the junior-senior high school ($11,795) to ensure that the resources are being effectively utilized to improve student outcomes at the younger grade levels.
