The data also reveals high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools in the 65806 zip code, ranging from 19.9% to 25.9%, which may be a contributing factor to the low academic performance observed.

The varying per-student spending levels between the schools, from $11,920 to $12,982, suggest differences in resource allocation that could also impact academic outcomes.
