Summary

Mission Valley Junior and Senior High School serves 216 students in grades 7–12 in Eskridge, Kansas. Its test results show a clear split: math and science proficiency are above state averages, while English language arts (ELA) trails the state. The most important concern is attendance: 40% of students were chronically absent in 2025–26, well above the state’s 18% and the Mission Valley district’s 26%.

Math is the school’s strongest subject compared with nearby schools, its district, and the state. Proficiency was 47%, versus a 33% average at nearby schools, 36% in the district, and 41% statewide. Science was also above each comparison: 44% at the school, compared with 37% nearby, 37% in the district, and 38% statewide. ELA is the clearest weakness: 38% proficiency was 8 points below the state, 1 point below the district, and below the nearby-school average of 40%. Among the ten schools in the comparison, Mission Valley ranked third-lowest in ELA and third-highest in math.

Math has improved notably: proficiency rose 20 points from 2022–23 to 2025–26, while the state’s rate rose 10 points, and the school moved from below the state to above it. ELA, by contrast, fell 8 points in the latest year, and its gap below the state widened over the longer term. SchoolDigger ranks the school 86th of 340 Kansas schools, at the 75th percentile with four stars; that percentile is down 15 points from the prior year but is third-highest among the ten nearby schools. The student–teacher ratio is 9.5, close to the nearby average of 9.1, and the free/reduced-lunch rate is 30%, below the nearby average of 46%. SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well the school serves students with low socioeconomic status rose from the 44th percentile in 2018–19 to the 97th in 2024–25, when its overall ranking was at the 90th percentile.

What people are saying

by a parent
Wednesday, October 31, 2012

This schools anti-bullying tactics are assinine. They routinely punish the child being bullied while allowing the aggressor to walk away unscathed. They belittle the parent and blame the student for their own inadaquacies and then fein astonishment when the parent expresses feeling of anger, frustration and disappointment. They punish the child when they dont like the parent and have no concern for the childs welfare or well-being. The educational opportunities are very limited at this school as they are only interested in the developing the special education program for the children with disabilities and provide very limited funding for children who are advanced or gifted. If you have any choice, dont send your child to this school - not if you love them because these people are insensitive, hateful and full of self importance. They forget that they are public servants and that the children are their first priority. Instead they focus on making sure all parents are aware of their power and authority over the children and intent to use that power if the parents aren't properly submissive. Close Quote
