As part of the Skyline Schools District, which is ranked 22 out of 266 districts in Kansas and rated 5 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, Skyline High consistently delivers outstanding academic performance.

Skyline High's academic excellence is evident in its consistent top rankings among Kansas high schools, earning a statewide ranking of 6 out of 318 schools for the 2023-2024 school year and a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance on state assessments (KAP) is particularly impressive, with significantly higher proficiency rates compared to the state average across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, Skyline High's 10th-grade students achieved 45.82% proficiency in English Language Arts and 52% proficiency in Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 27.57% and 21.31%, respectively. This academic success extends across different student subgroups, including White students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, indicating a focus on equity and inclusive practices.

The proximity of Skyline High to Pratt Senior High (2.26 miles) and the relatively low student-teacher ratio at Cunningham High (7.6) may present opportunities for collaboration, resource sharing, or joint initiatives that could benefit all three schools and their respective Cunningham and Pratt districts.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
