Summary:
The Goddard school district in Kansas is home to 5 elementary schools serving grades K-4 or K-5. Overall, the district appears to be performing well, with several standout schools that consistently rank among the top in the state.
Apollo Elementary School is the clear standout, with a statewide ranking between 32-53 over the past 3 years and a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Apollo has significantly higher proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the district and state averages. Amelia Earhart Elementary School is another strong performer, maintaining a 4-star rating and ranking between 68-85 statewide.
While the top-performing schools excel, there is a noticeable gap in performance between them and Clark Davidson Elementary and Oak Street Elementary School K-4, which lag behind in proficiency rates. Chronic absenteeism is also a district-wide challenge, with all 5 schools reporting the same 19.5% rate. Identifying and addressing the factors contributing to these disparities could help the Goddard district provide a more equitable education for all students.
