Summary

Overland Trail Elementary is a K–5 school in Overland Park with 531 students, part of the Blue Valley district. The area’s district ranks 4th of 268 Kansas districts and in the 99th percentile, according to SchoolDigger. The school’s clearest strength is science, but its English language arts and especially math results are less competitive with nearby schools.

In 2025–2026, 71% of students were proficient in science—9 percentage points above the district and 33 above Kansas. That was the second-highest result among the 11 schools compared, just behind Sunset Ridge Elementary and just ahead of Mission Trail Elementary. By contrast, ELA proficiency was 67%, 3 points below the district and second-lowest among nearby schools; math was 60%, 8 points below the district and third-lowest. Grade results are uneven, too: fifth-grade ELA was 69%, below the district’s 74% and every nearby school’s result, while third-grade math was 47%, 17 points below the district and lowest among the 11 schools. Fourth-grade ELA and fifth-grade math were above district results.

Results improved overall from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026: ELA rose 7 percentage points, math 8 and science 4, although the latest year brought declines of 6 points in both ELA and science, while math was nearly flat. SchoolDigger ranks the school 81st of 657 statewide, in the 88th percentile with 4 stars; its percentile fell 5 points from the prior year and is lower than most nearby schools. The student-teacher ratio is 13.7, close to the nearby average of 13.5, and the free/reduced-lunch rate is 15%, compared with a 12% nearby average. Chronic absenteeism, at 15%, is the highest among nearby schools. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves Low Socio Economic Status Students is at the 70th percentile, versus 88th overall; its ranking for Asian Students is at the 50th percentile, down from 85th the year before, though that latest ranking draws on 20 schools.
