Summary

Northview Elementary serves 364 students in kindergarten through fifth grade in Manhattan, Kansas, as part of the Manhattan-Ogden district. Its overall picture is mixed: 2025–26 proficiency was above Kansas rates in English language arts (ELA), math and science, but below the district and nearby-school averages in all three subjects. The clearest concern is science, where Northview was 15 percentage points below the nearby-school average and ranked last among the nearby schools with results.

Math is the school’s strongest subject in comparison with local alternatives: Northview scored 44%, versus 47% at nearby schools, 49% in the district and 41% statewide. Its ELA score was 49%, below the nearby average of 57% and district’s 53%, but above the state’s 46%. Science was 40%, compared with 55% nearby, 47% in the district and 38% statewide. Northview was second-lowest among 10 nearby schools in both ELA and math, and lowest in science. Fifth-grade math is a bright spot: its 58% was fourth-highest among 10 schools with results, 2 points above the district and 13 above the state. By contrast, fifth-grade science was 40%, 14 points below the district and lower than every nearby school with a result.

Results have risen overall since 2022–23, though not steadily: ELA increased 14 points to 49%, math rose 17 points to 44%, and science gained 6 points to 40%. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking improved from the 24th percentile and 1 star in 2024–25 to the 45th percentile and 2 stars in 2025–26, but Northview remains third-lowest among the 11 schools compared. Its student-teacher ratio is 12.7, below the nearby average of 14. Its free/reduced-lunch rate is 73%, compared with a nearby-school average of 46%; this is context, not an explanation of test results. One notable group result is Hispanic students’ SchoolDigger standing: the 91st percentile in 2025–26, compared with the school’s overall 45th percentile. Proficiency figures cover tested grades 3–5 and do not show results for kindergarten through grade 2.

Open Quote We moved into this school district half-way through the school year. I was really concerned about the transition, but it was flawless. My daughter has had AMAZING 3rd and 4th grade teachers who have been heavily invested in her education. Her teacher this year noticed she was getting lazy in a certain area that the teacher knew she could do better in. The teacher found a very positive and effective way to motivate her and she is now excelling. My daughter always loathed PE at her two previous schools, but here she actually likes it (most of the time, haha!) I even find it interesting, I always find myself asking what they are doing in PE because it sounds so much better than anything I ever had in school! Overall very impressed with this school.
