Summary:
The 66401 zip code area is home to two schools - Wabaunsee Senior High and Wabaunsee Elementary School, both part of the Wabaunsee school district. While the high school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, it generally outperforms the state average on state assessments. In contrast, the elementary school's performance is more mixed, with stronger results in the lower grades but struggles in 5th grade Mathematics.
Wabaunsee Senior High spends $14,607 per student and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.5, which may contribute to its academic success. The school's free/reduced lunch rate is 23.66%. On the other hand, Wabaunsee Elementary School spends $11,185 per student and has a higher student-teacher ratio of 14.6, with a free/reduced lunch rate of 26.23%. This difference in resource allocation and student-teacher ratios could be a factor in the performance gap between the two schools.
Overall, the data suggests that while both schools in the 66401 zip code area have their strengths and challenges, the high school appears to be the stronger performer, particularly in terms of its statewide ranking and proficiency on state assessments. However, the elementary school's performance in the lower grades indicates potential areas for improvement, and a closer examination of resource allocation and teaching methods could provide insights into optimizing student learning across both schools.
