Summary:
Zip code 66528 has one listed school, Marais Des Cygnes Valley Elementary, serving prekindergarten through grade 5 and enrolling 87 students. Its current all-grade ELA result is above Kansas’s, while math is slightly below: 57% versus 46% in ELA, an 11-point advantage, and 38% versus 41% in math, a 3-point deficit. The most important finding is the sharp math reversal: the school went from 14 points above the state in 2024–25 to 3 points below in 2025–26.
Marais Des Cygnes Valley Elementary is the area’s only school, so there is no local top-to-bottom comparison; against Kansas, ELA is its clearest current strength and math is weaker. The grade-level results show a substantial split: third grade was 10 points below the state in ELA and 25 points below in math, while fourth grade was 14 points above in ELA and 10 points above in math. In the supplied results, then, fourth grade exceeded state figures in both subjects, while third grade fell short in both.
ELA remains above the state, but its advantage narrowed as the school’s result fell from 62% in 2024–25 to 57% in 2025–26; Kansas rose from 44% to 46%, and the school’s advantage narrowed from 17 points to 11. SchoolDigger’s reported percentile rose from 50 in 2023–24 to 60 in 2024–25, then fell to 44 in 2025–26. Chronic absenteeism is another notable concern: 45% at the school, compared with 27% in the Marais Des Cygnes Valley district and 18% statewide. The school’s student-teacher ratio is 9.6, and its free/reduced-lunch rate was 69%; these provide context, not an explanation for results. Because the list contains one school and grade-specific results only for grades 3 and 4, it cannot show local school-to-school differences or outcomes for every grade.
