Summary:
Zip code 66615 has one listed elementary school, Wanamaker Elementary, serving prekindergarten through grade 5 and enrolling 475 students. Its 2025–26 all-grades proficiency rates were above state and Auburn-Washburn district rates in English language arts (ELA), math, and science. The clearest strength is science: 63% of students met proficiency, 25 percentage points above the state rate.
Because Wanamaker is the only school in the list, there is no meaningful local top or bottom school to compare. Against the state, its all-grades results were 56% in ELA, 11 points higher; 53% in math, 12 points higher; and 63% in science, 25 points higher. It also exceeded district rates by 7 points in ELA, 6 in math, and 23 in science. Grade-level results show some variation: grade 3 ELA was 1 point below the district, and grade 4 math was 4 points below, though both were above state rates. SchoolDigger gives Wanamaker 4 stars and ranks it 188th of 657 Kansas schools, at the 71st percentile.
Scores rose in all three subjects from 2024–25 to 2025–26: ELA increased 2 percentage points, math 9, and science 6. State results rose 1 point in ELA and 2 in math, while science fell 3 points, so Wanamaker’s advantage grew in each subject. SchoolDigger’s percentile ranking also rebounded from 60th in 2024–25 to 71st, though it remained below 76th in 2023–24. The student–teacher ratio is 13.5, and 40% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25. Chronic absenteeism was 12%, compared with 18% in both the district and state. With only one school listed, the area’s school-to-school variation cannot be assessed.
