Summary

Augusta Middle School in Augusta, Kansas, serves 445 students in grades 6–8. Its 2025–2026 KAP proficiency rates trail both the Augusta district and Kansas in ELA (37%, versus 43% and 46%), math (29%, versus 36% and 41%), and science (20%, versus 32% and 38%). The most important finding is that science is the school’s largest overall shortfall, while eighth-grade math is an especially sharp grade-level weakness.

ELA is Augusta’s relative strength, but the school remains below nearby-school averages in all three subjects: 37% versus 40% in ELA, 29% versus 35% in math, and 20% versus 38% in science. It scores below five of nine nearby schools in ELA and math, and below seven of nine in science. Eighth-grade math stands out within the school, too: 20% are proficient, compared with 37% in grade 6 and 40% statewide; Augusta’s grade 8 result is higher than only two of nine full-span nearby schools. Chronic absenteeism is a more favorable measure: 13%, about 5 percentage points below the state rate, though 2 points above the district’s; it is fourth-lowest among nearby schools with current figures.

Results have moved in different directions: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA proficiency rose 14 percentage points and math rose 7, while science fell 4. Over that period, the gap with the state narrowed by 1 point in ELA but widened by 3 in math and 11 in science. SchoolDigger ranks Augusta at the 24th percentile statewide, with 1 star; its percentile has dropped 29 points from 53 in 2021–2022. The student-teacher ratio is relatively low at 11.7, compared with a nearby-school average of 12.9, while the free/reduced-lunch rate is 44%, below the nearby average of 53%; these are context, not explanations for results. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Special Education Students is a notable strength at the 80th percentile, compared with 24 overall. Its ranking for Low Socio Economic Status Students fell 28 points in one year, to the 28th percentile.
