SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 340 Kansas High Schools

Better than 96% of Kansas high schools

Summary

Cunningham High serves 117 students in grades 6–12 in Cunningham, Kansas. Its latest proficiency rates were 46% in English Language Arts (ELA), 48% in math and 55% in science. The clearest headline is science: the school’s score was 17 percentage points above Kansas and the highest among nearby schools with reported scores.

Compared with nearby schools, Cunningham High ranked first in science, second in math and third in ELA. Its science proficiency was 14 points above the nearby-school average, while its ELA and math results were 5 and 8 points below those averages. ELA is also its weakest subject relative to its district: the school was 6 points below Cunningham’s rate, and math was 5 points below. Science was just 1 point below the district and 17 points above the state; ELA was effectively at state parity, and math was 7 points above the state. Results vary by grade, too: seventh-grade ELA proficiency was 22%, compared with 62% in tenth grade.

Scores have risen substantially since 2022–23, though not every subject improved in the latest year. ELA gained 22 percentage points over that period, math 12 and science 35; in 2025–26, ELA fell 4 points and math 1, while science rose 17. SchoolDigger ranks the school 15th of 340 Kansas schools, at the 96th percentile with 5 stars; it ranked 8th of 332 the prior year, after standing at the 42nd percentile in 2023–24. Its 9.5 students per teacher is below Pratt Senior High and Kingman High, and just above Skyline High’s 9.0; its free/reduced-lunch rate of 38% is close to Skyline’s 37%. Because the school serves grades 6–12 while most nearby schools serve high school grades, and enrollment is small, grade-level results may fluctuate.
