Summary:
The 67954 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Rolla Elementary (PreK-5), which serves a small student population of just 50 students. Despite fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the years, Rolla Elementary has consistently outperformed the Rolla district and the state of Kansas in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency rates.
Rolla Elementary's performance has ranged from a 5-star rating in 2012-2013 to a 1-star rating in 2018-2019, suggesting that the school's success may be influenced by factors beyond just the school itself. However, the school's most recent proficiency rates of 61.11% in ELA and 55.54% in Math are significantly higher than the district (43.17% and 36.36%) and state (33.55% and 31.6%) averages, indicating that the school is providing a quality education to its students.
With a high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (62%) and a low student-to-teacher ratio of 9.8 to 1, Rolla Elementary appears to serve a population with a relatively low socioeconomic status while benefiting from a more personalized learning environment. These factors may contribute to the school's strong academic performance compared to the broader district and state, despite its fluctuating statewide ranking in recent years.
