Summary

I X L Elementary is a public elementary school located in Arkansas City, Kansas, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 198. The school is part of the Arkansas City school district, which is ranked 235 out of 264 districts in Kansas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

I X L Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Kansas elementary schools, typically ranking between 500-600 out of around 650-670 schools. The school's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in KAP (Kansas Assessment Program) tests, is significantly below the state and district averages across all grades and subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 39.75% of all I X L Elementary students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 44.47% statewide and 32.93% in the Arkansas City district. In mathematics, the proficiency rate was just 19.5%, compared to 38.73% statewide and 23.78% in the district. The school also has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 19.5% to 22.2% in recent years, which are significantly higher than the state and district averages.

However, the school's performance for certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic students and students with disabilities, suggests that the school may be providing targeted support and interventions for these groups. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, I X L Elementary's Hispanic students ranked 58 out of 262 Kansas elementary schools in English Language Arts, with a 4-star rating, while the school's overall ranking was 548 out of 656 schools. The nearby schools, such as C 4 Elementary, Jefferson Elementary, and Frances Willard Elementary, generally perform better academically than I X L Elementary, with higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics.
