Summary:

The Hoisington school district in Kansas consists of 4 schools: 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals a significant disparity in academic performance between the elementary schools and the middle and high schools.

Lincoln Elementary stands out as the top-performing school, ranking 154 out of 656 Kansas elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across all grades, and has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate. In contrast, Hoisington High and Hoisington Middle struggle to meet state averages in proficiency, despite Hoisington High's relatively high 4-year graduation rate and low dropout rate.

All schools in the district have a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 44.97% at Roosevelt Elementary to 56.7% at Lincoln Elementary. The consistent per-student spending across all schools suggests that funding may not be the primary driver of the performance differences, and the district could focus on addressing the chronic absenteeism issue and exploring strategies to improve academic performance, particularly at the middle and high school levels.
