Summary

Dwight D. Eisenhower Elementary serves 218 students in grades 4–5 in Abilene, Kansas. SchoolDigger ranks it 448th of 657 Kansas schools, in the 32nd percentile, with 2 stars; Abilene ranks 133rd of 268 districts, in the 50th percentile, with 3 stars. The clearest concern is fourth-grade math: 31% of students were proficient, 13 percentage points below the state and the lowest result among five nearby schools reporting that grade.

Science is the school’s strongest subject against the state and district, while math is the most consistent weakness. Across all grades, science proficiency was 40%, compared with 38% for both the state and district; however, the nearby-school average was 52%. Math was 34%, below the state’s 41%, the district’s 38%, and the nearby-school average of 48%. Fourth-grade ELA was also below the state: 41% versus 50%, and about 13 points below the nearby-school average. Fifth-grade results were stronger than fourth-grade results within the school, but fifth-grade math and science still trailed state results.

Results over time show mixed progress: math rose from 27% in 2022–23 to 34% in 2025–26, but its gap to the state widened by 2 points. Science fell 14 points, from 55% to 40%, though it remains above the state. SchoolDigger’s overall percentile has dropped 38 points since 2021–22, from 70 to 32. The school’s student–teacher ratio is 15.9, compared with a nearby-school average of 12.3; its free/reduced-lunch rate is 54%, the third-highest among nearby schools with reported rates. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness ranking for White students is at the 17th percentile, 15 points below the school overall; its ranking for female students fell from the 57th percentile in 2020–21 to the 27th in 2025–26.
