GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I liked how small of a class and school I have. Give me opportunities to have one on one time with teachers.

I like how close-knit everyone at Kansas is due to being a small town school. However, because of how small it is, resources are slim and the overall education is pretty average. The good teachers try their best to improve the quality of education, but there's only so much that they can do.

Raised 3 children in Kansas Schools. All have gone on to college and have been successful. The rating for this school is wrong in so many ways. Kansas Schools has consistently received a Bronze rating for education and testing in Illinois, which many schools in the area haven't achieved once. Check...

Small town values instilled in students from a very early age. Independence and work ethic are strongly valued and taught.
