Summary
Eisenhower Elementary serves pre-K through grade 5 and enrolls 277 students in Wellington, Kansas. Its 2025–26 results show a clear contrast: ELA and science proficiency were above state and district results, but math was well below the state average and has declined over time. Fourth-grade math is the school’s most urgent academic concern: 15% of students were proficient, compared with 44% statewide and 29% districtwide.
Compared with the Wellington district, the school was 13 percentage points higher in ELA, 1 point higher in math, and 16 points higher in science. Among the other three Wellington elementary schools with all-grades results, Eisenhower ranked second in ELA, first in science, and third in math; its results were 50% in ELA, 45% in science, and 29% in math, against peer averages of 43%, 31%, and 38%, respectively. Fifth-grade ELA was a particular strength at 63%, above both the state’s 51% and district’s 52%. In contrast, fourth-grade ELA was 39%, below the state’s 50%.
Math proficiency fell from 41% in 2022–23 to 29% in 2025–26, while the state rate rose from 31% to 41%; ELA edged up from 47% to 50%, and science slipped from 49% to 45%. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking also fell, from the 66th percentile in 2022–23 and 46th in 2024–25 to the 34th percentile in 2025–26, with a 2-star rating. The 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 15.3, the highest among nearby schools with reported figures, and 60% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch. One positive subgroup result: SchoolDigger placed students from lower socioeconomic backgrounds at the 65th percentile in 2025–26, well above the school’s overall 34th-percentile ranking, though below that subgroup’s 71st-percentile result the prior year.
