Clark Elem is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Wichita school district, located in Wichita, KS with about 354 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 20 teachers, Clark Elem has a student/teacher ratio of about 17:1.
