Summary:
Prairie View has one middle school, Prairie View Middle, serving grades 6–8 and enrolling 195 students. Its 2025–2026 results were mixed compared with Kansas: proficiency was 39% in ELA, 43% in math and 40% in science, versus 46%, 41% and 38% statewide. ELA is the clearest concern: the school was 7 points below the state overall, with grades 6 and 7 below by 6 and 7 points, while grade 8 was 1 point above. The most important finding is that ELA is notably weaker in the younger tested grades, while math and science results were above the state overall.
There is no meaningful local top-or-bottom comparison because Prairie View Middle is the only school in the area; it is both highest and lowest by default. Against Kansas, the school was 7 points below in ELA, 2 points above in math and 2 points above in science. Math’s overall advantage masks differences by grade: grade 7 was 9 points above the state, grade 6 was 2 points above, and grade 8 was 1 point below. SchoolDigger gives the school a 3-star rating and places it at the 52nd percentile, ranked 176th of 368 Kansas schools. These are SchoolDigger measures, not state test results. With no other area middle school, there is no like-for-like school comparison.
Results changed in different directions by subject. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, ELA fell from 44% to 39%, while math rose from 40% to 43%; science fell from 42% to 40%, but remained above the state because the statewide result fell more. SchoolDigger’s percentile ranking rose from 55 to 61, then dropped to 52 in the latest year. The school’s 12.1 student–teacher ratio and 48% free/reduced-lunch rate offer additional context about the school, but there is no local peer school for comparison.
