Summary

Norwich Middle School in Norwich, Kansas, serves grades 6–8 and has 44 students, the smallest enrollment among the four nearby schools in this comparison. In 2025–26, proficiency was below the state and district averages in ELA, math, and science. Its clearest academic concern is science: 27% of students were proficient, 11 points below the state, 18 points below the district, and 23 points below the nearby-school average.

ELA is the school’s strongest subject relative to the state and district: 41% of students were proficient, 5 points below the state and 3 points below the district. Still, that result was 10 points below the nearby-school average. Math proficiency was 33%, 8 points below the state, 5 below the district, and 16 below nearby schools on average. Grade-level results show a sharp contrast: seventh-grade math reached 44%, above the state by 6 points and the district by 10, while eighth-grade results were weak in all three subjects. Eighth-grade proficiency was 27% in ELA, 18% in math, and 27% in science; each was below the state, and Norwich also trailed every nearby school reporting eighth-grade results.

ELA has improved steadily, rising from 24% proficiency in 2022–23 to 41% in 2025–26, while its gap below the state narrowed from 9 points to 5. Math rose from 26% to 33% over that period but fell 5 points from 2024–25; science rose from 16% to 27% overall, but dropped from 47% the previous year. SchoolDigger places Norwich at the 33rd percentile statewide with 2 stars, down from the 47th percentile the year before; its 2025–26 percentile was the lowest among the nearby schools. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well the school serves White students fell to the 23rd percentile, from the 45th percentile in 2024–25, compared with the school’s overall 33rd percentile. Norwich’s student–teacher ratio was 9.4, lower than nearby schools’ ratios of 12.8–14.3, and its free/reduced-lunch rate was 50%, compared with a nearby-school average of 33%; these are contextual observations, not explanations for results. With only 44 students, school-level percentages may be sensitive to individual results.
