Elementary Schools in Fredonia

Summary:

The Fredonia area in Kansas is home to two elementary schools: Lincoln Elementary and Fredonia Early Learning Center. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and provide a crucial foundation for the educational journey of Fredonia's youth.

Lincoln Elementary has shown steady improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 399 out of 660 schools in 2022-2023 to 295 out of 653 schools in 2023-2024, with a 3-star rating. The school has outperformed the Fredonia district and the state of Kansas in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency for most grade levels in the 2024-2025 school year. However, both Lincoln Elementary and Fredonia Early Learning Center have faced challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates of 19.5% in the 2024-2025 school year.

The data also reveals that both schools serve a significant population of students from low-income families, with free and reduced-price lunch rates of 56.32% at Lincoln Elementary and 50.77% at Fredonia Early Learning Center in the 2023-2024 school year. This suggests that the Fredonia district may be facing socioeconomic challenges that could impact student performance and attendance. The district's allocation of resources, with Fredonia Early Learning Center having a slightly higher per-student spending than Lincoln Elementary, may indicate a focus on early childhood education, which could have long-term benefits for student success.
