Summary

Bryant Opportunity Academy is a K–5 elementary school in Wichita serving 36 students. In 2025–26, 3% of students were proficient in English Language Arts (ELA) and 0% in math; the latest reported science result was also 0%, for 2024–25. Chronic absenteeism was 80%, far above the 30% rate in Wichita and the 18% statewide rate. The most important finding is that Bryant’s reported achievement is lower than the district, state, and every nearby school with comparable results.

Math is Bryant’s relative strength compared with its ELA results, but it remains well below other schools. ELA proficiency was 3%, compared with 30% in the district, 46% statewide, and a 40% average at 10 nearby schools. Math was 0%, versus 21% in the district, 41% statewide, and a 27% nearby-school average. The latest science result, also 0%, is from an earlier year and compares with 24% in the district, 41% statewide, and a 35% nearby-school average. Chronic absenteeism also stands apart: at 80%, Bryant is 50 percentage points above the district and 62 points above the state; nearby schools range from 13% to 31%.

Bryant’s ELA proficiency rose from 0% in 2022–23 to 3% in 2025–26, but its gap with the state widened by 9 percentage points as the state improved faster. Math fell from 3% to 0%, and science stayed at 0% across its three reported years. SchoolDigger ranks Bryant 656th of 657 Kansas schools, at the 0th percentile with 0 stars; nearby Franklin Elementary is the next-lowest comparison at 633rd, also with 0 stars. Bryant has a reported student-teacher ratio of 2.5, compared with 12.6–16.3 at nearby schools, and its 2024–25 free/reduced-lunch rate of 92% is the highest in that group. With only 36 students, school-level results may be especially sensitive to how many students were tested.
