Summary

Lebo Elementary is a PK–5 school in Lebo, Kansas, serving 159 students in the Lebo-Waverly district. Its 2025–26 results show strong ELA and science alongside a clear math weakness: math proficiency was 39%, below the state’s 41% and the district’s 49%. Fourth-grade math is the most urgent concern, at 19%—25 points below the state and 14 points below the district.

ELA and science are the school’s strongest results compared with the state and district. ELA proficiency was 62%, 16 points above the state and 5 points above the district; it ranked second among the 11 nearby schools, behind Waverly Elementary. Science was 58%, 20 points above the state and 11 above the district, placing second among nearby schools with results. Math ranked fourth in the local group: despite being above the nearby-school average of 35%, Lebo was below both state and district rates. The grade-level contrast is striking: fifth-grade math reached 68%, while fourth grade ranked 10th among the 11 schools.

Results have shifted over time: math fell 17 percentage points from 2022–23 to 2025–26, while science rose 11 points and ELA declined 4. SchoolDigger’s overall percentile dropped 15 points in the latest year, to the 65th percentile, with a rank of 232 out of 657 and 3 stars; it remains second among nearby schools, behind Waverly. Attendance is a positive contrast: chronic absenteeism was 7%, compared with 11% districtwide and 18% statewide. Lebo’s student-teacher ratio was 13.6, near the local average of 13.0. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Female Students was at the 37th percentile, 28 points below the overall ranking—a notably lower standing in how well the school serves this group. Its Male Students ranking also fell sharply, from the 99th percentile in 2020–21 to the 68th in 2025–26.
