Summary

North Lawn Elementary is a public elementary school in Neodesha, Kansas, serving 174 students in grades K-7. The school is part of the Neodesha School District, which is ranked 206 out of 264 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

North Lawn Elementary has faced several challenges in recent years. The school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 19.5% to 6.9%, which is significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Heller Elementary and Lincoln Central Elementary. Additionally, the school's test scores are generally lower than the state and district averages, with only 31.84% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 44.47% and the Neodesha district average of 32.98%. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student groups, with special education students and those from low socioeconomic backgrounds performing particularly poorly.

When compared to nearby schools, North Lawn Elementary generally underperforms. For example, Heller Elementary, which is in the same district, outperforms North Lawn Elementary in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. The data suggests that North Lawn Elementary could benefit from targeted interventions to address chronic absenteeism, improve academic performance, and explore ways to increase funding and resources to support student learning.
