Fredonia Junior/Senior High School

Summary:

Fredonia Junior/Senior High School is a public high school in Fredonia, Kansas, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 293 students. The school is part of the Fredonia District, which is ranked 231 out of 266 districts in Kansas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, Fredonia Junior/Senior High School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kansas high schools over the past several years, with its highest ranking being 179 out of 323 schools in the 2012-2013 school year.

The school's academic performance is a significant concern, with consistently low proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to the state averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 12.01% in ELA, 10.62% in Math, and 23.65% in Science, compared to the state averages of 33.55%, 31.6%, and 32.28%, respectively. The school's performance for specific student subgroups, such as White students and Low Socioeconomic Status students, is also concerning, ranking in the bottom quartile of Kansas high schools. However, the school has demonstrated exceptional performance for its Special Education and Disabled student populations, ranking 9 out of 111 Kansas high schools in 2018-2019.

The nearby Elk Valley High School and Neodesha High have significantly outperformed Fredonia Junior/Senior High School in academic proficiency rates, highlighting the disparity in educational quality and resources between Fredonia and its neighboring districts. Additionally, Fredonia Junior/Senior High School has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 48.3% to 53.58% over the past three school years, which is significantly higher than the state average and indicates a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

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.
