Summary:
Zip code 66607 has one listed school, Scott Dual Language Magnet, an elementary school serving prekindergarten through grade 5 with 402 students. Because it is the only school in the list, families cannot compare it with other local schools using these figures. In 2025–2026, its all-grade science result was slightly above the state result, while ELA and especially mathematics were below it. The clearest academic takeaway is that mathematics is the school’s largest gap with the state.
Science is the school’s strongest subject relative to the state: 40% of Scott students met the standard, compared with 38% statewide, a 2-point advantage. In ELA, Scott had 38% compared with 46% statewide, an 8-point gap; in mathematics, it had 27% compared with 41%, a 14-point gap. The mathematics shortfall also appears in each reported grade: Scott was 20 points below the state in grade 3, 15 points below in grade 4, and 16 points below in grade 5. Grade 4 was the school’s strongest reported grade in both ELA and mathematics.
Results improved from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: Scott gained 5 points in ELA, 6 in mathematics, and 4 in science, while its gaps with the state narrowed by 3, 4, and 7 points, respectively. Chronic absenteeism was also lower than the comparison figures: about 11% at Scott, versus 24% in Topeka Public Schools and 18% statewide. SchoolDigger ranked Scott 526th of 657 schools, in the 20th percentile, and gave it 1 star; its earlier listing was 532nd of 653, in the 19th percentile, also with 1 star. The school’s student-teacher ratio is 13.2, and its reported free/reduced-lunch rate is 92%, useful context but not evidence explaining its results. These figures describe one school and do not establish how it compares with other schools in the zip code.
