Summary:
The 66073 zip code in Kansas is home to two schools: Perry Lecompton High and Perry-Lecompton Middle, both part of the Perry Public Schools district. While the high school maintains a relatively high graduation rate, both schools have seen a decline in their statewide rankings in recent years, indicating areas for improvement.
Perry Lecompton High School stands out with its 89.5% four-year graduation rate and low 1.3% dropout rate, but its test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics are below the state average, with only around 30% of students proficient or better. In contrast, the middle school's test scores are more mixed, with some grades performing above the state average and others below. Both schools face challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates and a significant percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which may be influencing their academic performance.
Interestingly, the high school spends more per student ($11,813) compared to the middle school ($10,345), suggesting a potential difference in resource allocation or prioritization between the two institutions. Overall, the data provides a comprehensive overview of the schools in the 66073 zip code, highlighting both strengths and areas for improvement, and suggesting that targeted interventions and support may be beneficial in addressing the identified challenges.
