Summary

Marvin Sisk Middle School serves 118 students in grades 6–8 in Douglass, Kansas, and is one of 11 middle schools in the nearby-school comparison. In 2025–26, its proficiency was 43% in English language arts (ELA), 38% in math, and 42% in science. The clearest takeaway is that science is a relative bright spot: its result was above the state and nearby-school averages, while ELA and math remained slightly below the state.

Compared with the nearby schools, Marvin Sisk ranked fourth of 11 in ELA, fifth in math, and fourth in science, and its results were above the group’s averages in all three subjects. Science was 3 points above the state result; ELA was 3 points below, and math was 3 points below. Compared with Douglass Public Schools, ELA was nearly even, while math was 4 points lower and science was 3 points lower. Sixth grade stands out: ELA and math results were above state comparisons, but seventh-grade results in both subjects and eighth-grade math were below the state.

Results have improved over the four reported years: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, proficiency rose 20 points in ELA, 15 in math, and 23 in science. Science moved from 12 points below the state to 3 points above it, although its results have varied from year to year. SchoolDigger places Marvin Sisk at the 51st percentile with 3 stars overall; four nearby schools rank higher and six lower. Its student–teacher ratio of 8.3 is the lowest reported in the group. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure for how well the school serves Special Education Students is at the 97th percentile with 5 stars, up 40 percentile points in two years; its measure for Low Socio Economic Status Students is at the 19th percentile with 1 star, down 58 points since 2023–24. These are group-level statewide rankings, not ratings of individual students, and the school’s small enrollment means yearly results may be sensitive to changes in the number of students tested.
