High Schools in Cherryvale

Summary:

The Cherryvale Senior / Middle School is the sole high school serving the Cherryvale, Kansas area. This small school of 288 students has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.7, but faces some academic challenges, particularly in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency.

While the school's 89.5% four-year graduation rate and 1.3% dropout rate are positive indicators, its performance on state assessments has been declining in recent years. In 2024-2025, the school's ELA and Math proficiency rates were below the state average, though its Science proficiency was above average. The school also serves a high-poverty student population, with 72.92% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024.

Despite these challenges, the Cherryvale school district is working to address the academic performance issues and support its students. Focusing on improving ELA and Math instruction, while building on the school's Science strengths, could be key strategies to help the Cherryvale Senior / Middle School better serve its community.
