Summary:
The 67009 zip code has only one elementary school, Puls Elementary, which serves grades PK-8 in the Attica district. While Puls Elementary was previously ranked 267 out of 653 Kansas elementary schools, its ranking has since declined to 318 out of 656 schools, with a corresponding drop in its SchoolDigger rating from 3 stars to 1 star.
Academically, Puls Elementary struggles, with students scoring below the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across all grades, except for 4th grade where they perform better than the state average. The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.5% and a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 57.26%.
Despite these challenges, Puls Elementary spends $15,752 per student, which is higher than the state average, and maintains a student-teacher ratio of 14.9, slightly lower than the state average. However, the school's declining performance and academic struggles suggest that further investigation and targeted interventions may be necessary to improve student outcomes and ensure that all students in the 67009 zip code have access to a high-quality education.
