Summary

Apollo Elementary School serves 544 students in prekindergarten through grade 4 in the Goddard district. Its clearest distinction is leading the 10 nearby schools in both subjects: 78% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA) and 65% in math.

ELA is Apollo’s strongest subject relative to local and statewide results, while math is also well ahead. Nearby-school averages were 52% in ELA and 42% in math, putting Apollo 26 and 23 percentage points higher, respectively. It also exceeded the district by 25 points in ELA and 19 in math, and the state by 32 and 24 points. Apollo’s ELA score was 13 points above the next-highest nearby school, Amelia Earhart Elementary School; its math lead over that school was 9 points. Results were strong in both tested grades as well: grade 4 math was 67%, just 1 point above the nearby grade-level leader.

Results have moved in different directions over time: ELA rose 12 percentage points from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, while math fell 6 points from its earlier high. Apollo’s math advantage over the state narrowed by 15 points across those years, though it remains substantial. SchoolDigger ranks Apollo 33rd of 657 Kansas schools, at the 95th percentile with 5 stars; the next-highest nearby percentile is 77. Its student-teacher ratio is 15.9, higher than nearby schools’ reported ratios of 11.8 to 15.0. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Special Education Students also shifted notably: from the 98th percentile in 2022–2023 to the 60th in 2023–2024, then back to the 88th in 2024–2025, compared with overall school percentiles of 95, 92 and 95. Apollo’s supplied test results cover ELA and math, not science.
