GAMMON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Gammon Elem is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Wichita school district, located in Wichita, KS with about 469 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 29 teachers, Gammon Elem has a student/teacher ratio of about 16:1. 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.

Gammon Elementary School is a public school located in the North Wichita area, operating under the Wichita Public Schools district (USD 259). Serving a suburban community, the school is dedicated to providing a comprehensive elementary education that focuses on foundational academic skills, social-emotional development, and preparing students for success in middle school and beyond. As part of the state’s largest school district, Gammon benefits from the resources and standardized curriculum of the broader Wichita school system while maintaining a localized focus on its specific student population.

The school emphasizes a supportive learning environment, often characterized by active community and parental involvement, which is a hallmark of the schools in the northern section of Wichita.
