Summary

Wichita County Elementary serves 221 students in prekindergarten through grade 6 in Leoti, Kansas. Its latest reported results are well above both state and district results in English Language Arts (ELA), mathematics, and science. The clearest strength is science: 86% of students met the standard, 48 percentage points above Kansas.

There are no other schools within 20 miles, so a nearby-school comparison is not available. Compared with the state, the school’s results are higher by 31 points in mathematics and 29 points in ELA; compared with the Leoti district, they are higher by 15 and 13 points, respectively. Science also leads the district by 43 points. ELA is the school’s weakest result relative to both comparison groups, but its 75% result still exceeds the state’s 46% and the district’s 62%. Grade-level results point to a mathematics difference worth noting: grade 4 scored 54%, compared with 91% in grade 5, though both were above their state results.

Results have risen since 2022–2023: science increased 48 points to 86%, mathematics rose 20 points to 72%, and ELA gained 27 points to 75%. The school’s SchoolDigger standing also improved, from the 65th percentile and 3 stars in 2020–2021 to rank 21 of 657, the 97th percentile and 5 stars in 2025–2026. SchoolDigger’s Male Students measure rose from the 46th percentile in 2018–2019 to the 97th in 2025–2026, matching the overall percentile in the latest year. Other context includes an 11.2 student–teacher ratio and a 52% free/reduced-lunch rate in 2024–2025; neither figure explains the results. Chronic absenteeism was 11% in 2025–2026, below the state’s 18% and the district’s 14%.
