Best Public Schools in Stockton, KS

Summary:

The city of Stockton, Kansas is home to two schools - Stockton Elementary and Stockton High. While both schools face challenges, Stockton Elementary has shown steady improvement in its statewide ranking and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates, outperforming the state average. In contrast, Stockton High has struggled with its statewide ranking and mathematics proficiency rates, which have been significantly below the state average.

Stockton Elementary has moved from 479th out of 660 Kansas elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 295th out of 656 in 2024-2025, and its ELA proficiency rates have increased from 27.51% in 2023-2024 to 52.28% in 2024-2025. However, its mathematics proficiency rates, while improving, are still slightly below the state average. Stockton High, on the other hand, has seen its statewide ranking fluctuate, and its mathematics proficiency rates have been low, ranging from 0% to 17.39% in the years examined.

Both Stockton Elementary and Stockton High have a significant percentage of students from low-income families, as indicated by the high free and reduced-price lunch rates. This suggests that the schools may face additional challenges in supporting their students' academic and social-emotional needs. The resource allocation within the Stockton school district may also play a role in shaping the schools' performance and the support they can provide to their students.
