Elementary Schools in Oakley

Summary:

The Oakley Elementary is the sole elementary school located in Oakley, Kansas. The school serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and has a student population of 183. While the school has maintained a relatively consistent performance over the past few years, with rankings in the 300s-400s range out of over 600 Kansas elementary schools, its proficiency rates in both English Language Arts (49.05%) and Mathematics (41.81%) are below the state averages (44.47% and 38.73% respectively).

One bright spot for Oakley Elementary is its 3rd grade proficiency rates, which are higher than the state averages in both ELA (53.56% vs. 51.85%) and Math (44.82% vs. 41.81%). However, the school's 4th grade proficiency rates are lower in both subjects. Additionally, Oakley Elementary has a relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 44.26%, and a chronic absenteeism rate of 19.5%, which is higher than the state average.

Overall, Oakley Elementary appears to be a relatively average-performing school in Kansas, with some areas of strength and areas for improvement. The school's demographics, with a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, may be a contributing factor to its academic performance, but the data does not suggest any correlation between the school's racial makeup and its performance.
