I had the most amazing time at NEM. And in my opinion, it is the best high school in Wichita.

This is the best highschool to attend in the Wichita area if your child is planning on attending college. They specialize in Science, Law, and Art. I graduated from the Art program in 2005. I love this school and the teachers are very helpful with work. Parents would also like the weekly progress reports that NEM (Northeast Magnet) sends homes with their students.

About the tests

In 2011-2012 Kansas used the Kansas State Assessments (KSA) to test students in grades 3 though 8, 11 and 12 in reading and math; in grades 4, 7, 11 and 12 in science; and in grades 6, 8 and 12 in history-government. The tests are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Kansas. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
