Summary

Pretty Prairie Elementary in Pretty Prairie, Kansas, serves prekindergarten through fifth grade and enrolls 133 students, the smallest enrollment among the five nearby schools compared. In 2025–26, SchoolDigger placed it at the 69th statewide percentile, second among the five schools. The most important takeaway is that math is a clear strength, while science is the school’s weakest result compared with nearby schools.

Pretty Prairie’s math proficiency was 61%, above the state’s 41% and the Pretty Prairie district’s 51%; it ranked second among the nearby schools, whose average was 45%. English Language Arts proficiency was 55%, also second among the five. Science proficiency was 45%—above the state’s 38% and the district’s 38%, but 11 percentage points below the nearby-school average of 57%, making it the lowest result in that group. So the school’s above-state performance across all three subjects does not mean its results are equally strong locally.

Math has improved notably: proficiency rose from 38% in 2022–23 to 61% in 2025–26, a 23-point increase, while the state’s result rose by 10 points. Fourth-grade math stood out at 72%, 28 points above the state; fifth-grade math was 50%. Science moved in the opposite direction, falling from 56% in 2024–25 to 45% the following year. SchoolDigger gave the school 3 stars, and its statewide percentile rose from 61 to 69 in the latest year. Context figures include a 12.3 student-teacher ratio, compared with a nearby-school average of 13.1, and a 44% free/reduced-lunch rate, versus the nearby average of 51%; these figures do not explain test results. One notable subgroup change: SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well the school serves male students reached the 77th percentile in 2025–26, up from the 25th percentile in 2020–21.
