Summary:

The Manhattan-Ogden list includes 14 schools serving elementary, middle and high school grades, with Kansas test results mostly from 2025–26. The results vary widely: elementary grade 4 math ranges from 23% at Lee Elementary to 67% at Amanda Arnold Elementary, against a state score of 44%. The most important finding is that school and grade-level differences are substantial, rather than performance being uniform across the area.

Amanda Arnold Elementary is the clearest elementary standout, leading in all-grades ELA, math and science at 68%, 66% and 64%—about 22, 25 and 25 points above state results. Susan B Anthony Middle School leads the two middle schools, with 58% in ELA, 54% in math and 57% in science; its scores are about 12 to 19 points above the state. In same-grade high school comparisons, Manhattan High School scores higher than Manhattan Virtual Academy in grade 10 ELA and math and grade 11 science. The Virtual Academy has the lowest all-grades results in each subject: 31% ELA, 25% math and 24% science.

Recent changes are mixed: the average school advantage over the state narrowed in ELA, from about 9 to 8 points, and in math, from about 7 to 5 points; in science it widened from about 8 to 13 points. Individual results differ: Northview Elementary gained 17 points in math, while Oliver Brown Elementary fell in all three subjects. SchoolDigger ranks Amanda Arnold Elementary at the 90th percentile and Susan B Anthony Middle School at the 88th; the Virtual Academy is at the 26th. Context also varies: elementary free/reduced-lunch rates range from 18% at Oliver Brown to 74% at Ogden Elementary, while reported student-teacher ratios do not neatly track scores. These measures offer context, not explanations for school results.
