Understanding the 9/10 Rating
With a rating of 9/10 (excellent), Cheylin Unified School District 103 ranks among Kansas’s top-tier-rated school systems. Our ratings are based on state assessment results — the share of students scoring proficient or above in reading and math, as reported in the U.S. Department of Education’s EDFacts collection (2021–22 school year). We average each district’s reading and math proficiency, then rank it against other districts in the same state to produce a 1–10 score.

⚠️ Small-district caveat. Cheylin Unified School District 103 enrolls 161 students.
