Summary

Frankfort Elementary serves 185 students in prekindergarten through grade 6 in Frankfort, Kansas. In 2025–26, its proficiency rates were above the state average in English language arts (ELA), math, and science, and SchoolDigger placed it in the 77th percentile statewide, with 4 stars. The school’s clearest strength is ELA, where it edged the nearby schools with comparable all-grades results.

ELA is also where Frankfort stands out against its district and state: 64% of students were proficient, compared with 58% in Vermillion and 46% statewide. Its rate was just ahead of Valley Heights Elementary (63.8%) and Centralia Elementary (63.6%). Science is the weaker comparison: Frankfort’s 46% proficiency was above the state’s 38%, but below Vermillion’s 49%; only Marysville Elementary had a lower rate among nearby schools reporting results. Results also vary by grade: grade 6 math was 78%, while grade 3 math was 43%, just 1 percentage point above the state and 6 below the district.

Compared with 2022–23, proficiency is higher in all three subjects: ELA rose 13 percentage points, math 5, and science 2. But results fell from 2024–25—by 8 points in ELA, 9 in math, and 28 in science—so the longer-term gains do not erase the latest-year declines. Frankfort’s SchoolDigger rank was 148 of 657, down 9 percentile points from its 2024–25 peak. Its 13.8 student-teacher ratio was the highest among the six nearby schools, while its 26.5% free/reduced-lunch rate was the second-lowest. SchoolDigger’s group rankings also changed sharply: its measure for serving male students rose from the 52nd percentile in 2020–21 to the 87th in 2025–26, while its measure for female students fell from the 92nd to the 71st percentile.
