Summary:
ZIP code 67118 has one middle school, Norwich Middle School, serving grades 6–8 and enrolling 44 students. In 2025–26, its all-grades proficiency was below Kansas in ELA (41% versus 46%), math (33% versus 41%), and science (27% versus 38%). Science had the largest gap, at 11 percentage points below the state. Most importantly, science proficiency fell sharply from the prior year, leaving the school below the state in all three subjects.
Because it is the only school in the area, there is no meaningful school-to-school top or bottom; the clearest standouts are differences between grades at Norwich. Grade 6 ELA was 5 points above the state (47% versus 42%), and grade 7 math was 6 points above (44% versus 38%). Grade 8 results were much weaker: ELA was 15 points below the state (27% versus 42%), and math was 21 points below (18% versus 40%). These differences show why the all-grades figures do not tell the whole story for families considering the school.
Results changed unevenly from 2024–25 to 2025–26: ELA rose 3 points at Norwich, compared with a 1-point state increase, while math fell 5 points as the state rose 2. Science fell 19 points, from 47% to 27%, while the state declined 3 points; Norwich shifted from 5 points above the state to 11 points below. SchoolDigger’s rating stayed at 2 stars, while its percentile fell from 47th to 33rd and its rank changed from 191 of 363 to 245 of 368. Other context includes a 9.4 student-teacher ratio, a 50% free/reduced-lunch rate, and 12% chronic absenteeism, below the state’s 18%.
