Summary

Maize Senior High serves 1,444 students in grades 9–12 in the Maize area of Kansas. Its clearest academic story is a sharp rebound in English language arts and math, while science remains its main weakness.

In 2025–26, the school’s English language arts proficiency was 52% and its math proficiency was 50%—about 6 and 9 percentage points above the state, respectively. Among nearby schools, it ranked second in English language arts, behind Eisenhower High School, and first in math. Science proficiency was 33%, below the Maize district’s 44% and the state’s 38%, though above the nearby-school average of 25%. It ranked fourth among nearby schools in science.

English language arts proficiency rose 31 percentage points over two years, to 52%, and math rose 29 points, to 50%. SchoolDigger rates the school at the 80th statewide percentile and four stars for 2025–26, up from the 53rd percentile the previous year; its percentile is second among nearby schools, behind Eisenhower High School. The reported student-teacher ratio is 15.4, tied with Maize South High School, and 30% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves special education students rose from the 23rd to the 81st percentile between 2023–24 and 2025–26. By contrast, its Military Connected Students ranking was at the 0th percentile in 2025–26, versus 80th overall; that comparison is based on 14 schools statewide. Attendance is another concern: chronic absenteeism reached 21%, up from 14% two years earlier and 8 points above the district rate.
