Summary
Kingman Elementary School serves 330 students in prekindergarten through grade 6 in Kingman, Kansas, as part of the Kingman - Norwich district. Its results vary by subject, but mathematics is the clearest concern: 32% of students are proficient, 9 percentage points below the state and 6 below the district. Fourth- and fifth-grade math are especially weak, at 25% and 30% proficiency, respectively—19 and 15 points below state results. Mathematics, particularly in grades 4 and 5, is the school’s most important area of concern.
Science is a relative strength, while ELA and especially math trail nearby schools. Kingman’s science proficiency is 48%, 10 points above the state and 3 above the district, and only 4 points below the nearby-school average of 52%; it sits near the middle of the five schools. ELA is 44%, close to the state’s 46% and district’s 45%, but 17 points below the nearby average of 61%. Math is 26 points below the nearby average of 58%, and Kingman scores below all four nearby schools in both ELA and math; even the lowest nearby math result, at Norwich Elementary School, is 47%. Nearby-school overall comparisons are not perfectly like-for-like because Kingman serves through grade 6, while the comparison schools serve through grade 5.
Over time, results have moved unevenly: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA rose 10 points and math rose 6, but the state improved more in both subjects; science fell 12 points, though it remains above the state. SchoolDigger places Kingman at the 32nd percentile statewide, with 2 stars—the lowest standing among these five schools. Its 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 13.1, compared with a nearby average of 11.7, and its free/reduced-lunch rate was 61%, versus a nearby average of 40%; these are context, not explanations for test results. SchoolDigger’s measure for special education students is notably stronger, at the 51st percentile, while its measure for White students is lower, at the 17th percentile.
