Summary:
Fort Riley has five schools serving elementary and middle-school grades: four elementary schools and one middle school, with no high school listed. Together they enroll 2,553 students, including 541 at the middle school. In 2025–26, the schools’ average results were above Kansas in all three subjects: 13 points in ELA, 8 in math, and 27 in science. Science is the clearest shared strength: all five schools exceeded the state, averaging 66% compared with 38% statewide.
Fort Riley Elementary leads the group in ELA at 69% and math at 64%; its math result is 12 points above second-place Ware Elementary at 52%. Morris Hill Elementary leads science at 76%, 5 points above Fort Riley Elementary at 71%. At the lower end, LTG Richard J. Seitz Elementary has the lowest math and science results, at 38% and 55%; its math is 3 points below the state, though its science remains 16 points above. Fort Riley Middle School has the lowest ELA result at 47%, still 1 point above the state. Grade-level results add an important caution: its sixth-grade ELA and math are 8 and 10 points below state results.
Average school results rose from 2024–25 to 2025–26 by 6 points in ELA, 5 in math, and 8 in science; the state gained 1 point in ELA and 2 in math, while science fell 3 points. All four elementary schools improved in every subject, but Fort Riley Middle School declined in all three. SchoolDigger’s rankings also show mixed paths: Morris Hill Elementary rose from the 66th to the 79th percentile, while Fort Riley Middle School fell from the 85th to the 70th. Context measures do not point to a simple pattern: elementary student–teacher ratios range from 12.1 at Fort Riley Elementary to 16.0 at Seitz, and Ware scores above Seitz in every subject despite similar enrollments.
