Tonganoxie

Summary:

The Tonganoxie school district in Kansas consists of three schools: Tonganoxie Elementary, Tonganoxie High, and Tonganoxie Middle School. The district is ranked 188 out of 264 in Kansas and is rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Tonganoxie Elementary stands out for its relatively strong English Language Arts (ELA) performance, with proficiency rates exceeding the district and state averages in many grade levels. However, the school's math proficiency rates lag behind, particularly in the upper elementary grades. Tonganoxie High School has a positive graduation rate of 89.5% and a low dropout rate of 1.3%, but its ELA and math proficiency rates are below the district and state averages. Tonganoxie Middle School shows relatively strong ELA performance, but its math and science proficiency rates are a concern, with 8th-grade math proficiency well below the state average.

A consistent challenge across all three Tonganoxie schools is the high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.5%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the district's statewide ranking has been declining over the past few years, indicating a need for targeted interventions and resource allocation to address these issues and improve overall academic outcomes for the Tonganoxie school community.
