Summary

Leonard C Seal Elementary serves 263 students in prekindergarten through fifth grade in Douglass, Kansas. Its 2025–2026 results show that chronic absenteeism is low—6%, down from 17% in 2022–2023—and that students are doing well in some subjects but not all. The most important pattern is a clear strength in science alongside less distinctive performance in English language arts (ELA).

In 2025–2026, all-grades proficiency was 47% in ELA, 49% in math and 60% in science. Compared with the state, the school was ahead by 1 percentage point in ELA, 8 in math and 22 in science; compared with Douglass Public Schools, it was ahead by 3, 8 and 15 points, respectively. Nearby comparisons sharpen the picture: among schools with comparable tested grades, the average was 52% in ELA, 42% in math and 54% in science. Leonard C Seal was therefore 6 points below that ELA average, but 8 points above in math and 6 above in science. Fourth-grade ELA is a particular concern: 41%, compared with 50% statewide and a 49% nearby-school average.

Results have shifted over time. From 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, science rose 9 percentage points, while ELA gained 1 and math fell 6; compared with the stronger 2024–2025 results, the latest year was down 9 points in ELA and 10 in math. SchoolDigger ranks the school at the 56th percentile statewide, 291 of 657 schools, with three stars—down 19 percentile points from the prior year’s standing at the 75th percentile. Its student-teacher ratio is 10.9, the second-lowest among nearby schools with reported ratios; its 2024–2025 free/reduced-lunch rate was 48%. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well it serves students receiving special education placed the school at the 36th percentile, down from 70 the prior year. For White students, the measure was at the 35th percentile, down from 66.
