Hadley Middle School

Public Grades
Summary

Hadley Middle School is a public middle school in Wichita, Kansas, serving 532 students in grades 6-8. Unfortunately, this school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Kansas middle schools over the past several years, with a ranking between 322 and 355 out of 343 to 362 middle schools in the state.

Hadley Middle School significantly underperforms compared to the Wichita school district and the state of Kansas in academic proficiency across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 9.02% of Hadley students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 19.95% in Wichita and 33.55% statewide. The school also struggles to support the academic achievement of various student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 10% of Kansas middle schools for White students, Special Education students, and Low Socioeconomic Status students in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. Additionally, Hadley Middle School has an exceptionally high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 81.22% to 90.41% over the past three school years.

When comparing Hadley Middle School to other middle schools in the Wichita district, it is clear that Hadley is one of the lowest-performing schools. For example, Allison Traditional Magnet Middle and Maize South Middle School, which are both within a 5-mile radius of Hadley, significantly outperform Hadley in academic proficiency across all subject areas and grade levels. Hadley Middle School's consistently poor performance indicates a need for a comprehensive review of the school's educational practices, resource allocation, and support systems to improve student outcomes.
