Summary:
The 74365 zip code area is home to 3 elementary schools - Salina Elementary School, Wickliffe Public School, and Kenwood Public School - all of which are performing significantly below the state average on key metrics like test scores and chronic absenteeism rates.
Based on the data, there are no clear standout schools in this area. Salina Elementary School has the highest overall state ranking at 496 out of 614 elementary schools, but is still only rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. Wickliffe Public School and Kenwood Public School rank even lower at 791 and 891 respectively, both with the lowest 1 star rating.
The schools in this area face significant challenges, with all three having substantially lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science compared to the state average. They also struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 19% across the schools. Additionally, the schools serve economically disadvantaged populations, with free/reduced lunch rates over 84%. While per-student spending varies, this does not seem to translate to better outcomes, suggesting that other factors beyond just funding may be at play.
