Summary:

McCormick Elementary is a high-performing school, ranking 134 out of 656 Kansas elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school consistently outperforms the state average in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across all grades, despite having a relatively high 26.19% free/reduced lunch rate. Blue Valley High is an exceptional high school, ranking 1st in the state and boasting an impressive 89.5% 4-year graduation rate and only a 1.3% dropout rate. The school's test scores are significantly above the state average in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency for 10th grade.

However, all three schools in the Blue Valley district share a relatively high 19.5% chronic absenteeism rate, which may be an area for improvement.
