Summary:
The 67206 zip code in Wichita, Kansas is home to a single middle school, Coleman Middle School. This school is significantly underperforming compared to other middle schools in the state, ranking 349 out of 363 Kansas middle schools for the 2024-2025 school year and earning a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Coleman Middle School faces several challenges, including a high dropout rate of 1.3%, a chronic absenteeism rate of 19.5%, and test scores that are well below the Wichita and Kansas state averages across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 18.36% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 28.89% in Wichita and 44.47% statewide. Additionally, 84.74% of students at the school received free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage.
Despite these challenges, Coleman Middle School appears to have a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.7 in the 2023-2024 school year, which could be an asset if leveraged effectively. However, the data suggests the need for targeted interventions and support to address the school's performance issues and improve outcomes for its students.
