The free-lunch share is 11% below the Kansas average and 27% below the national baseline. Counselor coverage works out to roughly 152 students per counselor, meeting the American School Counselor Association recommendation of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 11.8% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.
