Summary:
The data set provided contains information about one elementary school located in Syracuse, Kansas. Syracuse Elementary is a public school serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 304 students.
Based on the information provided, Syracuse Elementary has faced some challenges in recent years. The school's performance, as measured by its state-wide ranking and star rating, has declined, going from a 2-star rating in 2023-2024 to a 1-star rating in 2022-2023 and 2024-2025. Academically, the school's performance, particularly in Mathematics, is significantly below the state average, suggesting the need for improved instructional practices and support for students in these subject areas.
Additionally, the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 75.33% in the 2023-2024 school year, indicates that the school serves a population with significant economic challenges. This may have an impact on the school's resources and the support available for students. With per-student spending of $10,529, it would be interesting to analyze how the school is allocating its resources and whether there are opportunities to optimize spending to better support student learning and achievement.
