Burke Academy

Summary:

Burke Academy is an alternative public school in Kansas City, Missouri, serving students from kindergarten through 12th grade as part of the Kansas City 33 school district, which is ranked 357 out of 376 school districts in the state.

Burke Academy's academic performance is significantly lower than the state and district averages. In the 2022-2023 school year, only 1.9% of students were proficient or better in MAP/Biology I, compared to 10% in the Hickman Mills C-1 district and 38.5% statewide. Similarly, only 14.3% of students were proficient or better in MAP/English II, compared to the state average of 54.4%. The school's performance in MAP/Government was also low, with only 3.4% of students being proficient or better, compared to 17.2% in the Hickman Mills C-1 district and 39.3% statewide. The nearby KIPP KC Legacy High School and Contract have higher percentages of minority students and significantly higher rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch compared to the state average.

The significantly lower academic performance of Burke Academy, coupled with the potential socioeconomic challenges faced by its students, suggests that the school may be struggling to provide quality education and support. The lack of diversity in the student population compared to nearby schools also raises concerns about equity and inclusion. To address these issues, the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions, increase support for students, and explore ways to better serve the diverse needs of the local community.

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.

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.
