Summary:
The 67206 zip code area in Wichita, Kansas is home to 3 schools: 2 elementary schools (Minneha Core Knowledge Elementary and Price-Harris Communications Magnet) and 1 middle school (Coleman Middle School). Based on the available data, Price-Harris Communications Magnet stands out as the highest-performing school in the area, consistently outpacing the other schools, as well as district and state averages, on standardized test scores in core subjects.
While all 3 schools have high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 19.5% to 19.5%, the student-teacher ratios are relatively low, suggesting manageable class sizes. However, the schools serve economically disadvantaged populations, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 64.13% at Price-Harris Communications Magnet to 84.74% at Coleman Middle School. This indicates the need for additional support and resources to address the unique challenges faced by these communities.
Interestingly, the spending per student varies, with Coleman Middle School receiving the highest funding at $14,911 per student in 2018-2019, followed by Minneha Core Knowledge Elementary at $11,139 and Price-Harris Communications Magnet at $10,910. This suggests that factors beyond just funding, such as school culture, teacher quality, and community engagement, may play a significant role in shaping student outcomes. Overall, the data provides valuable insights into the educational landscape of the 67206 zip code area and highlights areas for potential improvement and further investigation.
