Summary:
Insight School of Kansas is a public charter virtual high school serving grades 7-12 in Spring Hill, Kansas, with a student population of 1,035. The school is part of the Spring Hill school district, which is ranked 61 out of 269 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.
Despite being part of a well-performing district, Insight School of Kansas consistently underperforms compared to the state and its local district schools in academic proficiency. In 2022-2023, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science were significantly lower than the state and Spring Hill High School averages across all grade levels. The school has a low statewide ranking, placing between 125-236 out of 320-327 Kansas high schools over the past 6 years, and has received a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of this period, indicating poor overall performance.
As a virtual charter school, Insight School of Kansas faces unique challenges in delivering academic outcomes comparable to traditional brick-and-mortar schools. The school's high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 24.4 to 32.6 over the past 3 years, is significantly higher than the 15.2 ratio at Spring Hill High School. Additionally, the school spends significantly less per student, at $4,611 in 2018-2019, compared to the $11,316 per student spent at Spring Hill High School. These factors, along with the school's struggles with Hispanic, white, and economically disadvantaged students, suggest that the virtual learning environment may not be as effective for all students, and the school may need to address equity and inclusion issues to ensure all students are succeeding.
