Summary

Ogden Elementary is a public elementary school located in Ogden, Kansas, serving 130 students in grades K-5. It is part of the Manhattan-Ogden school district, which is ranked 77 out of 264 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ogden Elementary faces several challenges, including consistently higher chronic absenteeism rates compared to the district and state averages, and lower test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science across all grade levels. The school also has a significantly higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 58.86% to 68.66% over the past few years, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. However, Ogden Elementary has a lower student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools, suggesting a more favorable learning environment with smaller class sizes.

When compared to other schools in the same district, Ogden Elementary generally performs worse in terms of test scores and statewide rankings. For instance, Marlatt Elementary and Amanda Arnold Elementary consistently outperform Ogden Elementary across various metrics. The school's fluctuating performance and the differences in subgroup performance suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of the student population and improve the overall academic outcomes at Ogden Elementary.
