Summary

Edith Scheuerman Elementary serves 204 students in kindergarten through grade 4 in Garden City, Kansas. The clearest concern is fourth grade: proficiency was 28% in ELA and 19% in math, compared with 50% and 47% in third grade. Fourth-grade results were also below both district and state rates in each subject. The sharp drop in fourth grade is the most important academic finding for families.

Overall, Edith performs above the Garden City district averages but below state averages: ELA proficiency was 37% versus 33% districtwide and 46% statewide; math was 30% versus 25% and 41%. Among nearby district schools with similar grade spans, Edith was around the middle, ranking fourth of eight in ELA and fifth of eight in math; the peer averages were 40% and 32%. Third-grade math is a specific bright spot: Edith’s 47% was above the district’s 35% and the state’s 43%, and led similar nearby schools, including the 45% at Victor Ornelas Elementary.

Over four years, ELA proficiency rose 19 points, from 18% to 37%, though it fell 6 points in the latest year. Math slipped 2 points, from 32% to 30%, while the state rate rose 10 points. SchoolDigger rated Edith at the 26th statewide percentile with one star in 2025–26: up from the 16th percentile in 2022–23, but below its 37th-percentile standing in 2018–19. One notable subgroup result is English Language Learner Students, whose SchoolDigger ranking reached the 90th percentile in 2025–26, up 30 points from the prior year and well above the school’s overall percentile. Edith’s student–teacher ratio was 11.9, among the lowest at nearby district schools, while its 85% free/reduced-price lunch rate was around the middle of nearby schools; these are context, not explanations for test results.
