Summary

Inman Elementary is a public elementary school in Inman, Kansas, serving 265 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Inman School District, which is ranked 47 out of 264 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Inman Elementary consistently outperforms the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's ELA proficiency rate was 58.05%, compared to the state average of 44.47%, and its Mathematics proficiency rate was 46.77%, compared to the state average of 38.73%. The school's performance is particularly strong in 3rd grade, where the ELA and Mathematics proficiency rates were 70.58% and 70.57%, respectively, significantly higher than the state averages. Inman Elementary also has consistently high rankings for its female and low socioeconomic status (SES) student subgroups, often placing in the top quartile of Kansas elementary schools.

While Inman Elementary outperforms nearby Hutchinson Public Schools such as Morgan Elementary and Graber Elementary in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency, it lags behind some schools in the McPherson and Buhler districts, such as Eisenhower Elementary, Windom Elementary, and Buhler Grade School, in several grade levels and subject areas. This suggests that Inman Elementary has room for improvement, particularly in addressing the fluctuations in chronic absenteeism and exploring ways to close the achievement gap with the top-performing nearby schools.
