Summary:
ZIP code 66062 has six middle schools, all serving grades 6–8: five in Olathe and Woodland Spring Middle School in Spring Hill. In 2025–26, the six-school averages topped Kansas in all three subjects: 58% in English language arts (ELA), 58% in math, and 54% in science, compared with state results of 46%, 41%, and 38%. But school results vary substantially: the gap between the highest and lowest school was 22 points in ELA, 26 in math, and 35 in science. The most important takeaway is that the ZIP code’s overall averages hide meaningful differences between individual schools.
California Trail Middle School led ELA with 68%, 4 points ahead of Chisholm Trail Middle School and 22 points above the state. Woodland Spring led science at 72%, 9 points above California Trail, and math at 69%—essentially tied with Chisholm Trail, also at 69%. At the other end, Indian Trail Middle School had the lowest results in every subject: 46% in ELA, 43% in math, and 37% in science. Those figures were about level with Kansas in ELA and math and 1 point below in science. SchoolDigger ranked California Trail 18th of 368 statewide and Chisholm Trail 21st; grade-specific leaders also differ, with Chisholm Trail leading grade 6 and 7 math and California Trail leading grade 8 math.
Results improved on average from 2024–25 to 2025–26 by about 6 points in each subject, and the six-school advantage over Kansas grew from 7 to 12 points in ELA, 13 to 17 in math, and 7 to 16 in science. The gains were broad but not universal: 16 of 18 school-subject results rose, while Woodland Spring ELA fell 10 points and Chisholm Trail science dipped by 1; Indian Trail gained 13 points in math. SchoolDigger rankings improved from 2023–24 to 2025–26 at Pioneer Trail, Indian Trail, Chisholm Trail, Frontier Trail, and California Trail, while Woodland Spring’s rank fell from 12th to 28th. Student–teacher ratios are fairly close, from 11.6 to 13.7, and free/reduced-lunch rates range from 6% at Woodland Spring to 49% at Indian Trail; these are useful context, not explanations of school results. Enrollment ranges from 333 students at Woodland Spring to 693 at Frontier Trail Middle School, so results at the smallest school may vary more from year to year.
