Summary

Erie Elementary is a public elementary school in Erie, Kansas, serving 219 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Erie-Galesburg school district, which is ranked 214 out of 264 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Erie Elementary's academic performance is generally better than the district average, it still falls below the state average in most subject areas. On the 2024-2025 Kansas Assessment Program (KAP) tests, 50.86% of Erie Elementary students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 40.4% for the district and 44.47% for the state. In Mathematics, 38.59% of Erie Elementary students were proficient or better, compared to 29.79% for the district and 38.73% for the state. The school's performance on the KAP Science test was also below the state average, with 36.36% of students proficient or better in 2023-2024, compared to 32.28% for the state. Erie Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kansas elementary schools over the past 10 years.

Another area of concern for Erie Elementary is its high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 15% to 22% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average. Compared to nearby schools, Erie Elementary generally performs better than Humboldt Elementary School and Service Valley Charter Academy, but worse than Meadowview Elementary and Thayer Schools. Addressing the school's chronic absenteeism and implementing targeted interventions to improve student learning outcomes could be important next steps for Erie Elementary.
