Summary

Baldwin Elementary Intermediate Center serves 276 students in grades 3–5 in Baldwin City, Kansas. In 2025–26, about 51% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 45% in math, and 41% in science. Those results were above state averages in all three subjects, but below averages for the Baldwin City district. The clearest concern is the sharp latest-year setback: science proficiency dropped 21 points to 41%, while math fell 3 points to 45%.

ELA is the school’s strongest subject in nearby-school rankings, while math is its weakest: Baldwin placed 4th of 10 schools in ELA, 6th of 10 in math, and 4th of 9 in science. Its results were 5 points above Kansas in ELA, 4 points above in math, and 3 points above in science, but below district averages by 2, 4, and 1 point, respectively. Against nearby-school medians, Baldwin was 1 point below in ELA, 1 point above in math, and 4 points below in science. Fourth-grade math stands out as a particular weakness: 40% were proficient, 5 points below the state rate and lower than seven of nine nearby schools with results for that grade. Fifth-grade math was stronger at 46%, slightly above the state.

Longer-term results are mixed: since 2022–23, ELA proficiency has risen 3 points, math has fallen 5, and science has risen 1, despite declines in all three in the latest year. SchoolDigger ranked Baldwin at the 49th percentile statewide, 338th of 657 schools, with 2 stars in 2025–26—a 17-point percentile drop from the prior year. Its student-teacher ratio of 18.2 was second-highest among nearby schools with reported ratios. SchoolDigger’s measure of how well schools serve White students placed Baldwin at the 27th percentile, compared with the school’s overall 49th percentile; its Special Education Students ranking was notably higher, at the 69th percentile.

Open Quote I have three kids that have gone to this school and they loved it. I have also subbed in the schools in this district. Great teachers, caring staff and administrators, great community. Enough is not said about how wonderful Baldwin town and schools are. Small town, without the small town feel. We have loved it. Highly recommend! Close Quote
