Summary:
Ingalls has one high school, Ingalls High School/Junior High, serving grades 6–12 and 114 students. In 2025–2026, its all-grades proficiency was 61% in English Language Arts (ELA), 57% in math, and 61% in science. The most important finding is that the school was above Kansas in all three subjects, with its largest lead in science.
There is no top-to-bottom comparison because Ingalls is the only school in the area. Its strongest state-relative result was science, where it led Kansas by 23 percentage points; it was ahead by 16 points in math and 15 points in ELA. Grade-level results also show notable differences: grade 7 math was 69%, 31 points above the state, and grade 8 science was 68%, 29 points above. The smallest listed lead was grade 6 math, at 47% compared with 41% statewide, a 6-point gap. These differences mean the all-grades results do not describe every grade equally.
Results remain strong compared with Kansas, although the average lead narrowed between the two years reported. The school’s average across the three subjects fell from 62% in 2024–2025 to 60% in 2025–2026, while its lead over the state narrowed from 20 to 18 points. ELA improved by 5 points, while math and science each fell by 6 points. SchoolDigger’s ranking also moved down from 14th of 318 schools (96th percentile) in 2023–2024 to 30th of 340 (91st percentile) in 2025–2026, though it remains highly ranked. Other context includes a 10.1 student-teacher ratio and a 37% free/reduced-lunch rate. Chronic absenteeism was 10%, 8 points below Kansas and 1 point above the district. With only one school listed, there is no local school-to-school comparison.
