C 4 ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

C 4 Elem is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Arkansas City school district, located in Arkansas City, KS with about 140 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 8 teachers, C 4 Elem has a student/teacher ratio of about 17:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

C4 Elementary (officially known as **C4 Elementary School**) is located in a rural setting just outside of Arkansas City, Kansas. It serves as a localized educational hub within the Unified School District 470 (Arkansas City Public Schools). The school is characterized by its small, community-focused environment, providing a foundational educational experience for students in the primary grade levels before they transition into the larger district middle schools.

Because of its specific geographic location on 292nd Road, C4 Elementary often serves families in the outlying rural areas surrounding Arkansas City. Like many schools in the district, it focuses on core academic development, social-emotional learning, and fostering a close-knit school community. It operates as part of a district committed to integrating modern educational standards with the traditional values found in smaller Kansas school settings.
