Summary

Wyandotte High serves 1,903 students in grades 9–12 in Kansas City, Kansas. In 2025–26, proficiency was 11% in English language arts (ELA), 3% in math, and 7% in science; chronic absenteeism reached 71%. The most pressing concern is that proficiency is far below both district and state levels in all three subjects, with the largest gap in math.

Compared with nearby, same-district high schools serving grades 9–12, Wyandotte was close to the group’s average in ELA and science but below it in math. It was also below the Kansas City district in ELA, math, and science by 12, 13, and 8 percentage points, respectively, and below Kansas by 35, 38, and 31 points. Science is its strongest subject relative to both benchmarks; math is its weakest. Chronic absenteeism was also substantially higher: 71%, compared with 39% districtwide and 18% statewide.

Proficiency has risen from 2022–23 levels—ELA from 3% to 11%, math from 1% to 3%, and science from 4% to 7%—but state proficiency rose faster, widening the gaps by 5 points in ELA, 7 in math, and 4 in science. Math also fell from 5% in 2024–25 to 3% in 2025–26. SchoolDigger ranked Wyandotte 334th of 340 Kansas schools, at the 2nd percentile with 0 stars; its percentile has stayed between 1 and 4 across the years shown. The school’s 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 19.1, the highest among nearby schools with reported figures, and its free/reduced-lunch rate was 85%, also the highest nearby reported rate. SchoolDigger’s statewide subgroup rankings were notably higher for English Language Learners (43rd percentile, up from 31) and students receiving Special Education services (34th percentile, up from 5) than its overall 2nd-percentile standing; these rankings reflect how SchoolDigger assesses service to each group relative to that group at other Kansas schools.

The teachers are really cool, but the students were one of the worst students i ever had to work with! If you need help, they are always willing to help, but they are not as up to date on curriculum as they should be... Close Quote
