High Schools in Wallace County Schools

Summary:

Wallace County Schools in Kansas has just one high school, Wallace County High, which serves grades 9-12 and has an enrollment of 59 students. This standout school has consistently ranked among the top high schools in the state, reaching as high as 2nd out of 332 schools in the 2024-2025 school year, and maintains a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Wallace County High has significantly outperformed the state averages on standardized test scores, with 80% of 10th-grade students proficient or better in both English Language Arts and Mathematics in 2024-2025, compared to state averages of 37.93% and 33.59%, respectively. The school also boasts an impressive 89.5% four-year graduation rate in 2023-2024. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 19.5% in 2024-2025 is relatively high compared to state and national averages, which may be an area of concern.

The district appears to be allocating resources effectively, as evidenced by the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.3 to 1 and high per-student spending of $12,996 in the 2018-2019 school year.
