Summary:
Overbrook Attendance Center (PK–3), Carbondale Attendance Center (grades 4–8), and Santa Fe Trail High (grades 9–12) serve the Santa Fe Trail area; enrollment ranges from 308 to 370 students, and free- or reduced-price-lunch rates are similar, at about 44% to 46%. The most pronounced concern is attendance at the high school, where chronic absenteeism is 35%, compared with 13% at Overbrook and 17% at Carbondale.
Overbrook leads the reported 2025–26 all-grades results in math, at 57%, and ELA, at 50%; its math result is 16 percentage points above the state figure. Carbondale leads in science, with 42% compared with 38% statewide. Santa Fe Trail High is lowest in all three reported subjects: 37% in ELA, 28% in math, and 28% in science; those results are 9, 13, and 10 points below the state, respectively. All-grades scores offer a broad snapshot because the schools serve different grades; Carbondale’s grade-level results are mixed, with eighth-grade ELA and science above state figures but fifth-grade ELA and science below them.
Results improved from 2024–25 to 2025–26 in ELA and math at all three schools. The largest gains were at the high school in ELA, up 16 percentage points, and at Overbrook in math, up 17 points; the high school nevertheless remains below the state in all three subjects. SchoolDigger places Carbondale at the 49th percentile and the high school at the 35th percentile in 2025–26; the high school had been at the 11th percentile in 2024–25. The high school also has a 98% graduation rate, 8 points above the state, alongside its high absenteeism. Student–teacher ratios are 16.7 at Overbrook, 11.6 at Carbondale, and 11.8 at the high school.
