Summary:
The Peabody-Burns Junior/Senior High School is the sole high school serving the Peabody-Burns area. The school has consistently underperformed compared to other Kansas high schools, ranking in the bottom half of the state and earning a poor 0 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.
Academically, Peabody-Burns Junior/Senior High School struggles, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science significantly below the state averages across all grade levels. For example, the school's 10th grade proficiency rate in ELA was 25% compared to the state average of 37.93%, and in Mathematics, the 10th grade proficiency rate was just 12.5% compared to the state's 33.59%. The school's four-year graduation rate of 89.5% is also slightly below the state average.
Despite the school's low performance, it has a relatively high per-student spending and a low student-teacher ratio, suggesting that resources may not be the primary factor limiting the school's academic success. The school serves a relatively disadvantaged student population, with 44.34% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which may contribute to the academic challenges faced by the school.
