Summary:

The 67449 zip code in Kansas is home to a single elementary school, Herington Elementary, which serves students from the Herington school district. While the school has seen some fluctuations in its state-wide ranking over the past few years, it currently ranks 289 out of 656 Kansas elementary schools and holds a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Herington Elementary's academic performance is mixed, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (47.28%) and Mathematics (47.28%) slightly above the state averages, but its 5th grade Science proficiency (63.15%) significantly exceeding the state average of 41.44%. The school's four-year graduation rate is 89.5%, and it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.3 to 1. However, the school serves a high-poverty population, with 76.02% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, and its per-student spending of $12,783 in 2018-2019 is on the lower end.

Overall, while Herington Elementary has some areas of strength, such as its 5th grade Science proficiency, it does not appear to be a standout school in the state. Its fluctuating state ranking and below-average performance in English Language Arts and Mathematics suggest opportunities for improvement. Further analysis and context would be needed to fully understand the school's performance and identify ways to support its students and teachers.
