Best Public Schools in Basehor, KS

Summary:

The city of Basehor, Kansas is home to a high-performing school district, with 6 schools serving students from elementary through high school. The district includes Basehor-Linwood High School, Middle School, and 3 elementary schools, as well as a virtual school option.

Basehor-Linwood High School consistently ranks among the top 30 high schools in Kansas, with impressive test scores and a relatively low free/reduced lunch rate.

While the district as a whole performs well, there is some variation in free/reduced lunch rates across the schools, suggesting potential equity concerns that may need to be addressed. The presence of the Basehor-Linwood Virtual School provides an alternative option for families, with a much lower free/reduced lunch rate and higher student-teacher ratio compared to the traditional schools.
