Stanton County Elementary

Summary:

Stanton County Elementary is a public elementary school in Johnson, Kansas, serving 232 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Stanton County School District, which is ranked 234 out of 266 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Stanton County Elementary has consistently underperformed the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across all grades. However, the school's 5th-grade Science proficiency rate is higher than the state average. The school has shown exceptional performance in supporting its English Language Learner (ELL) student population, ranking among the top schools in Kansas for this subgroup. Conversely, the school's performance for White students and Low Socioeconomic Status (SES) students has been relatively lower.

Stanton County Elementary has faced persistent challenges, ranking in the bottom half of Kansas elementary schools and maintaining a 2-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger for most years. The school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, coupled with its lower performance for certain student subgroups, raises concerns about equity and the school's ability to effectively support students from disadvantaged backgrounds. The higher per-student spending at the school may indicate a need to evaluate the allocation and utilization of resources to address these issues and improve overall student outcomes.

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.
