Northview Elementary

Summary:

Northview Elementary is a public elementary school located in Olathe, Kansas, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 241 students. While the Olathe School District is ranked 55 out of 266 districts in Kansas and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, Northview Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state averages in academic proficiency.

Northview Elementary's academic performance has declined over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 289 out of 659 Kansas elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 407 out of 653 in 2023-2024, earning a 1- or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has struggled to support the academic achievement of certain student subgroups, particularly Hispanic students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. In contrast, the school's performance for White students and male/female students has been more in line with the district and state averages.

While Northview Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending compared to the state average, these resources have not translated into improved academic outcomes. The school's performance is generally lower than that of nearby Woodland Elementary and Ravenwood Elementary, but it outperforms some other nearby schools, such as Washington Elementary. Addressing the underlying factors that contribute to Northview Elementary's performance, including the needs of its diverse student population, will be crucial for improving the school's academic success.

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.
