Summary

Marshall Middle School is a public middle school in Wichita, Kansas, serving 505 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Wichita school district, which is ranked 245 out of 264 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, Marshall Middle School has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Kansas middle schools over the past decade, with a ranking between 339-357 out of 363-368 schools.

The school faces significant academic challenges, with only 21.3% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and just 14.6% proficient in mathematics, compared to the Wichita and Kansas state averages. Marshall Middle School also struggles to support the academic achievement of its diverse student population, ranking in the bottom quartile of Kansas middle schools for various subgroups. Additionally, the school has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching as high as 40.6%, and dropout rates ranging from 1.1% to 2.5%, all of which are higher than the district and state averages.

While Marshall Middle School faces these challenges, some nearby schools in the Wichita district, such as Robinson Middle School and Allison Traditional Magnet Middle, perform significantly better, with higher proficiency rates, lower chronic absenteeism, and better overall rankings within the state. The two magnet schools in the area, Brooks Magnet Middle School and Allison Traditional Magnet Middle, also consistently outperform Marshall Middle School and the district averages, suggesting that the magnet school model may be more effective in supporting student achievement.
