Summary
Haven Elementary serves 348 students in prekindergarten through grade 6 in Haven, Kansas, with several nearby schools offering useful comparisons. Academic results are above state and district levels across all three tested subjects, but attendance is a notable concern: chronic absenteeism reached 22% in 2025–26, up from 11% in 2023–24. The clearest academic bright spot is science, where the school had the highest result among nearby schools with reported scores.
Science proficiency was 63%, compared with 38% statewide and 52% in Haven Public Schools; it also exceeded the nearby-school average of 35%. ELA and math proficiency were 52% and 46%, respectively, both fourth among 10 nearby schools with results; nearby averages were 44% in ELA and 34% in math. The clearest weakness is sixth-grade ELA: 33% of students were proficient, 9 points below the state’s 42%, and five of eight nearby schools with results scored higher. In contrast, ELA proficiency was 59% in grade 4 and 62% in grade 5, with only Andale Elementary-Middle scoring higher among nearby schools with same-grade results in each.
All three subjects improved from 2022–23 to 2025–26: ELA rose 14 points, math 15 points and science 13 points, though science fell before rebounding to its latest high. SchoolDigger ranked the school 268th of 657 statewide, at the 59th percentile with 3 stars—up 14 percentile points from the prior year. Absenteeism, however, climbed to 22%, above the state’s 18% and district’s 16%; among nearby schools with current data, only Graber Elementary was higher, while McCandless Elementary matched Haven. The student–teacher ratio was 13.2, and the free/reduced-lunch rate was 51%, toward the lower end of the nearby range. SchoolDigger’s statewide rankings also place the school at the 85th percentile for Special Education Students and the 82nd percentile for Low Socio Economic Status Students, compared with the schoolwide 59th percentile.
