Summary:
ZIP code 67039 has one listed high school, Douglass High, serving grades 9–12, with 206 students. Since no other high schools are listed, families cannot compare local schools with one another. The clearest concern is that the school’s 2025–2026 proficiency rates were below Kansas in all three subjects: 33% in ELA versus 46% statewide, 28% in math versus 41%, and 32% in science versus 38%. The most important finding is that ELA and math each trailed the state by about 13 percentage points.
There is no local top or bottom school to identify, but science is Douglass High’s strongest subject relative to Kansas: its all-grades gap was 6 points, compared with about 13 points in ELA and math. The grade-matched result is more encouraging still: 11th-grade science was 32% at the school versus 30% statewide, 2 points higher. The school’s results were below Douglass Public Schools in all three all-grades subjects, by 10 points in ELA, 13 in math, and 13 in science.
ELA proficiency improved from 30% to 33% between 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, and its gap with Kansas narrowed by 2 points; math was flat at about 30% while its state gap widened from 9 to 13 points. SchoolDigger rates the school 2 stars and places it at the 36th percentile statewide, up 5 points from the prior year but well below its 79th-percentile standing in 2023–2024. Other context is mixed: chronic absenteeism was 20%, compared with 18% statewide; graduation was 85% versus 90%; and dropout was 0.6% versus 1.2%. The student–teacher ratio was 10.4 and the free/reduced-lunch rate was 32%.
