Summary

Clearwater Intermediate - Middle School serves 405 students in grades 4–8 in Clearwater, Kansas. For 2025–26, SchoolDigger gives it 4 stars and ranks it 59th out of 368 Kansas schools, at the 84th percentile. The most important finding for families is that Clearwater’s proficiency results are above both the state and district in all three tested subjects, with science its clearest strength.

In 2025–26, about 54% of Clearwater students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 51% in math, and 57% in science—about 8, 10, and 19 percentage points above the state, respectively, and 4, 4, and 6 points above the Clearwater district. Among nearby schools reporting all-grades results, Clearwater ranks second in ELA and math, behind Discovery Intermediate School, and first in science. Grade-level results are less even: sixth grade is especially strong, with 68% in ELA and 67% in math, while fifth-grade ELA (46%) is below the state’s 51%, and eighth-grade math (39%) is just below the state’s 40%. Clearwater’s 84th-percentile SchoolDigger ranking is one point above Dwight D. Eisenhower Middle School; comparisons across schools should be read with their different grade spans in mind.

Results have improved since 2022–23: proficiency rose about 19 points in ELA, 18 in math, and 15 in science, while Clearwater’s advantages over the state also grew. SchoolDigger’s overall percentile increased from 64 in 2018–19 to 84 in 2025–26, though rankings varied in between. Its student-teacher ratio was 12.8 in 2024–25, among the lowest at nearby non-alternative schools, and chronic absenteeism fell from 25% in 2023–24 to 13% in 2025–26. The free/reduced-lunch rate was 34%, below the nearby-school average of 53%—context, not an explanation for results. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings also show notable improvement: the male-student percentile rose from 53 in 2018–19 to 85 in 2025–26, near the school’s overall 84th percentile; the disabled-student percentile rose from 42 in 2018–19 to 73 in 2020–21, indicating a stronger relative standing in SchoolDigger’s measure for that group.
