Summary:
The Flinthills High School is the sole high school serving the Flinthills area. With a small student population of 96, the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking and performance rating over the past few years, dropping from 74th out of 327 Kansas high schools in 2022-2023 to 183rd out of 332 in 2024-2025.
Academically, Flinthills High School has mixed results. While its overall proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grades are higher than the state averages, the school's 10th-grade and 11th-grade proficiency rates in these subjects are lower. Additionally, the school's 11th-grade Science proficiency rate is below the state average. The school's four-year graduation rate of 89.5% is slightly below the state average, but its dropout rate of 1.3% is lower than the state average.
Flinthills High School serves a higher proportion of students from low-income families, with 44.79% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This socioeconomic factor may be contributing to the school's academic challenges, despite the higher spending per student of $11,541 compared to the state average. The school's small size and low student-to-teacher ratio of 9.6 could provide opportunities for more personalized attention, but may also present resource allocation and extracurricular challenges.
