Summary
Victoria Elementary enrolls 153 students in pre-K through grade 6 in Victoria, Kansas. Its 2025–26 all-grades proficiency rates were above the state average in English language arts (ELA), math and science, but the schoolwide results hide a clear grade-level concern. Fourth grade was the weakest tested grade in both ELA and math: ELA proficiency was 32%, compared with 50% statewide, and math was 41%, compared with 44% statewide. Fourth-grade ELA was also the lowest among nearby schools serving that grade, 11 points below the next-lowest result. The most important finding for families is that fourth grade’s ELA results stand out as a specific weakness, despite stronger schoolwide averages.
Science is the school’s strongest subject in comparisons with the state, district and nearby schools. Victoria’s all-grades science proficiency was 53%, versus 38% statewide and 48% in the Victoria district; it was also 7 points above the average for nearby schools with reported scores and ranked third among those five schools. ELA was 48%, slightly above the state’s 46% and the district’s 43%, but below all four nearby schools with scores—by about 1 point even from the lowest. Math was 50%, 9 points above the state, but 1 point below the district and about 3 points below the nearby-school average. These comparisons show a relative science strength and a more challenging picture in ELA, especially when compared with neighboring schools.
Results have fluctuated rather than rising steadily. From 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA increased from 37% to 48%, but fell from 51% in the previous year; math rose from 45% to 50%, including a 6-point gain in the latest year. Science has remained well above state levels, though it has varied from year to year. SchoolDigger placed the school at the 59th statewide percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26, a middle position among nearby schools; its percentile was 54 last year and 60 the year before. Its student–teacher ratio, 11.5, was the lowest reported among the six schools, while its free/reduced-lunch rate was 45%, the second-highest. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure for Female Students placed the school at the 41st percentile, 18 points below its overall standing; its measure for Low Socio Economic Status Students was higher, at the 73rd percentile, 14 points above overall. With 153 students enrolled, individual-grade results may be sensitive to year-to-year changes in the tested group.
