Summary:
The city of Edwardsville, Kansas has one elementary school, Edwardsville Elementary, which serves grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 341 students. The school has a diverse student population, with a high percentage of students (62.17%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student body.
Edwardsville Elementary's academic performance is mixed, with some grade levels performing better than the Bonner Springs district and state of Kansas averages, while others lag behind. For example, 4th-grade students at Edwardsville Elementary have significantly higher English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates (66.65%) compared to the district (45.44%) and state (42.82%), but 5th-grade students have lower ELA proficiency (24.61%) than the district (23.07%) and state (39.55%). The school's low student-teacher ratio of 11.6 could be a potential strength, as it may allow for more individualized attention and support for students.
Overall, Edwardsville Elementary serves a diverse and economically disadvantaged student population, with mixed academic performance across grade levels. While the school's low student-teacher ratio is a potential advantage, further investigation is needed to understand how this ratio is being utilized and whether it translates to improved student outcomes. Expanding the data set to include more schools in the area would provide a richer context for analysis and allow for more comprehensive comparisons.
