Summary:
Zip code 66763 has one middle school, Frontenac Junior High, serving grades 6–8 and enrolling 219 students. Its latest results are stronger than Kansas overall in English language arts (ELA) and mathematics, but slightly weaker in science: 53% versus 46% in ELA, 46% versus 41% in math, and 36% versus 38% in science. The most important takeaway is that science is the clearest concern in the latest results, especially after a substantial year-over-year decline.
There is no meaningful top-versus-bottom comparison because Frontenac is the only school in the list. Within the school, ELA results exceed the state’s in all three grades, by 11 points in grade 6, 11 in grade 7, and 8 in grade 8. Mathematics is more uneven: the school is 4 points above Kansas in grade 6 and 3 points above in grade 7, while its strongest grade-level result is grade 8 math, 52% versus 40% statewide—a 12-point advantage. Grade 8 science is below the state result, 36% versus 39%, a 3-point gap. SchoolDigger gives the school 4 stars and ranks it 102nd of 368 statewide, in the 72nd percentile.

From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, math rose 4 points, ELA edged up from 52.8% to 52.9%, and science fell 17 points, from 53% to 36%; Kansas science also declined, but by 3 points. SchoolDigger’s ranking moved from 81st of 362 in 2023–2024 to 102nd of 368 in 2025–2026, while its percentile fell from 78 to 72, a decline of 21 places and 6 percentile points.
