Summary:

The 66869 zip code is home to a single public elementary school, Chase County Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 and has an enrollment of 218 students. The school is part of the Chase County school district, which is ranked 79 out of 264 districts in Kansas and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Chase County Elementary School's performance on English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics tests is generally below the state averages, with the exception of 5th grade ELA, where the school's performance is higher than the state average. However, the school's performance on Science tests is significantly higher than the state average, both for all grades and for 5th grade specifically. The school has a higher chronic absenteeism rate and a higher percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch compared to the state averages, which may be contributing factors to the lower academic performance in some areas.

The school's spending per student and student-teacher ratio are within typical ranges, but it's unclear how these metrics may be impacting the school's performance. Overall, the data suggests that Chase County Elementary School has some areas of strength, particularly in Science, but also faces challenges in ELA and Mathematics performance compared to the state averages.
