Summary:
The 66073 zip code is home to two schools: Perry Lecompton High and Perry-Lecompton Middle, both part of the Perry Public Schools district. While the high school is performing above the state average in core academic subjects, the middle school is underperforming across the board.
Perry Lecompton High School is ranked 124 out of 318 Kansas high schools and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. It outperforms the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science proficiency for 10th and 11th grade students. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 16.3 and spends $11,813 per student, which is higher than the state average. In contrast, Perry-Lecompton Middle School is ranked 248 out of 362 Kansas middle schools with a 2-star rating, and it underperforms the state average in all core academic subjects across all grade levels.
The data suggests a significant performance gap between the high school and middle school, which may be influenced by factors such as the higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio at the high school. Addressing the underlying causes of the middle school's lower academic achievement could be a valuable focus for the district to enhance educational outcomes for all students in the 66073 zip code.
