SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 368 Kansas Middle Schools

Better than 99% of Kansas middle schools

Summary

Leawood Middle serves 493 students in grades 6–8 in Leawood, Kansas. Its 2025–2026 results are strong across English Language Arts (ELA), math and science, with proficiency of 75%, 75% and 73%, respectively. SchoolDigger ranks the school 2nd of 368 Kansas schools, in the 99th percentile with five stars. The most important finding is that it outperforms both the state and the Blue Valley district in all three subjects.

Among the 10 nearby schools, Leawood has the highest ELA and math proficiency and the second-highest science result, behind Prairie Star Middle. Its scores are also above the nearby-school averages by 9 points in ELA, 10 in math and 11 in science. Compared with Blue Valley, its advantages are 5 points in ELA, 6 in math and 10 in science; compared with the state, they are 29, 34 and 34 points. Eighth-grade math is a notable exception: 64% proficiency is 4 points below the district, and only one nearby school serving the same grades scored lower. Attendance is another relative concern: chronic absenteeism rose to 12.2%, versus 11.7% in the district and 17.8% statewide.

Results have risen sharply since 2022–2023: proficiency increased by 27 points in ELA, 26 in math and 31 in science, moving from below to above the district in every subject. Science dipped slightly from 73.2% to 72.5% in the latest year, while ELA and math continued upward. The student-teacher ratio is 13.2, essentially the nearby average of 13.2, and enrollment is below the peer average of about 600. The free/reduced-lunch rate is 8%, the lowest among nearby schools; this is context, not an explanation for academic results. SchoolDigger’s historical statewide rankings show a contrast for student groups: its gifted-student effectiveness ranking was at the 31st percentile in 2018–2019 and 46th in 2020–2021, versus overall rankings of 96th and 94th. Its ranking for female students rose from the 82nd percentile in 2020–2021 to the 99th in 2025–2026.
