Winnwood Elementary

Summary:

Winnwood Elementary is a public elementary school in Kansas City, Missouri, serving 243 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the North Kansas City 74 school district, which is ranked 120 out of 376 districts in Missouri and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Winnwood Elementary stands out from nearby schools like Oakwood Manor Elementary and Early Education Center in several key ways. The school has a more diverse student population, with a higher percentage of African American (26.75%) and Hispanic (18.52%) students. Academically, Winnwood Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Missouri elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's test scores are significantly lower than the district and state averages. Additionally, Winnwood has a very high percentage of students (64.97% to 81.07%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher concentration of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

Despite these challenges, Winnwood Elementary has some unique characteristics. The school has the highest spending per student ($12,475 to $15,732) among the nearby schools, and a relatively low student-teacher ratio (8.3 to 10.8). However, the school's academic performance has been declining over the past several years, dropping from a 3-star to a 1-star rating. This suggests that additional support or interventions may be needed to improve student outcomes at Winnwood Elementary.

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.
