Haviland Elementary consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Kansas, with exceptional academic performance on state assessments.

The school's 3rd-grade students stand out, with 92.85% proficiency in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, significantly higher than nearby schools like Southwest Elementary, Skyline Elementary, and Kiowa County Elementary/Junior High. However, the school has experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 4.7% in 2024-2025 to 19.5%, an issue the school should address.

These factors suggest a more personalized learning environment and a strong investment in resources and support for students. While the school's small size may limit certain opportunities, its exceptional academic performance and commitment to providing a high-quality education make it a standout choice for families in the area.
