Summary

Bonner Springs High is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Bonner Springs, Kansas, with a total enrollment of 802 students. The school is part of the Bonner Springs School District, which is ranked 200 out of 264 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bonner Springs High has consistently underperformed compared to the state average on standardized tests. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 29.09% of 10th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 37.93%. In mathematics, the proficiency rate for 10th-grade students was just 19.67%, significantly lower than the state average of 33.59%. The school has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 19.7% to 23.7% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

While Bonner Springs High has maintained a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 88.1% to 89.5% in recent years, its academic performance lags behind many nearby high schools, such as Olathe Northwest High School, Shawnee Mission Northwest High, and De Soto High School, which consistently outperform Bonner Springs on standardized tests and have higher graduation rates. The school's relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 43.02% to 48.63% in recent years, suggests that the school serves a population with a higher proportion of students from low-income families, which may contribute to the academic challenges the school faces.
