4^th

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 657 Kansas Elementary Schools

Better than 99% of Kansas elementary schools

Summary

Wheatland Elementary serves 443 students in grades K–5 in Andover, near Wichita. Its 2025–26 proficiency results were 83% in English language arts (ELA), 87% in math, and 82% in science; each was the highest among the 10 nearby schools in the supplied data. The most important finding is that Wheatland leads its local comparisons in all three subjects.

Wheatland’s results also stand well above district and state levels: ELA proficiency was 20 percentage points above Andover and 37 points above Kansas; math was 27 and 46 points higher, respectively; and science was 29 and 44 points higher. Compared with nearby-school averages, Wheatland was ahead by 24 points in ELA, 38 in math, and 33 in science. Fourth-grade ELA is a relative soft spot within the school: 76% was below its grade 3 and grade 5 results, but still slightly exceeded the best nearby grade 4 result. Grade 5 math was a standout, at 92%.

Results have risen since 2022–23, especially in science, which gained 22 percentage points, from 61% to 82%; ELA rose 8 points and math 5. Wheatland’s advantage over the state widened in science but narrowed over the full period in ELA and math. SchoolDigger ranks the school 4th of 657 Kansas schools, in the 99th percentile with 5 stars. Other context: chronic absenteeism was 8%, below the district’s 11% and state’s 18%; the student–teacher ratio was 15.5, the second-highest among nearby schools; and the free/reduced-lunch rate was 11%, compared with a 37% nearby-school average. One older subgroup result stands out: in 2021–22, SchoolDigger ranked how well Wheatland served Asian students at the 54th percentile (12th of 26 schools), compared with its overall 99th-percentile standing that year.
