Academically, Kircher School's performance is mixed. While the school excels in math proficiency, with 50% of students meeting or exceeding state standards compared to the statewide average of 36.59%, its reading proficiency rate of 13.51% is significantly lower than the state average of 46.03%. The school's science proficiency rate stands at 20%. Kircher School's student-teacher ratio of 16.2 is higher than the state average, and its spending per student of $8,328 is below the state average, which may contribute to the school's academic challenges.
Kircher School's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the past few years, from a high of 67th out of 356 schools in 2020-2021 to a low of 248th out of 332 schools in the most recent year. This inconsistency in performance suggests that the school may be influenced by factors beyond just academic achievement. Additionally, the school's predominantly White student population may indicate a need to examine its efforts to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion.
