Summary:
Based on the data provided, there is only one high school located in Kansas - Kansas High School. This school serves students in the Kansas district and has a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger, ranking 273 out of 452 schools in the state.
Kansas High School's academic performance is a concern, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and mathematics lower than the state averages. The school's 4-year graduation rate of 82.2% is also below the state average. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0%, significantly higher than the state average. However, the school's proficiency rates in U.S. History are notably higher than the state average, both for 11th grade and overall.
The school serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, as indicated by the high percentage of students (87.5%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This socioeconomic factor may be contributing to the school's lower academic performance and higher chronic absenteeism rates. Despite the school's slightly higher per-student spending compared to the state average, the academic data suggests that these resources may not be fully translating into improved student outcomes.
