Summary

Remington Middle School in Whitewater, Kansas, serves 151 students in grades 5–8, fewer than any of the 10 nearby schools in this comparison. Its 2025–2026 results are above state averages in English language arts (ELA), math, and science, but the most important finding for families is that sixth grade is a clear academic weak spot: proficiency was 38% in ELA and 38% in math, below state rates and fourth among nine schools serving sixth grade in both subjects.

Across all grades, Remington ranks third among the 11 schools in each subject, and its scores are above nearby-school averages: 51% in ELA versus 39%, 42% in math versus 32%, and 49% in science versus 37%. Science is its strongest area relative to both the state and the Remington-Whitewater district: Remington is 10 percentage points above the state and 6 above the district. ELA is 5 points above the state but 3 below the district; math is just 1 point above the state and 4 below the district. Nearby schools serve different grade spans, so the all-grades comparison is not perfectly like-for-like.

ELA has improved steadily, rising 20 percentage points over four years, from 30% to 51%. Math is up 9 points over that period but slipped from 44% to 42% in the latest year; science has fluctuated and fell from 67% to 49%. SchoolDigger ranks Remington 139th of 368 statewide, at the 62nd percentile with 3 stars; its percentile has declined from 87 in 2020–2021. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well the school serves female students is at the 37th percentile, below the school’s overall 62nd percentile and down from 80 in 2020–2021. The student-teacher ratio is 13.1, below the nearby average of 13.9, and the free/reduced-lunch rate is 48%, below the nearby average of 57%; these are context, not explanations for achievement. Because enrollment is small, test percentages may be more sensitive to changes in the number of students tested.
