Congratulations to Doniphan West USD 111 on Another Year of Academic Excellence!
Doniphan West USD 111 continues to demonstrate outstanding academic achievement year after year — and this year is no exception. We are proud to share that our district has once again been recognized by Commissioner Randy Watson and the Kansas Department of Education with STAR Awards for Excellence in Education.
Earning STAR recognition is a significant accomplishment for any district, and we are honored to consistently receive not only STARs but Gold and Silver awards in the categories that matter most for the success of our students and graduates. This achievement reflects the exceptional commitment to excellence across all Kansas schools — and Doniphan West stands among the very best.
A heartfelt thank you to our dedicated staff, talented teachers, hardworking students, and supportive families. Your collective efforts and commitment make these accomplishments possible.
Great job, Doniphan West! We are proud of all we have achieved together and look forward to continued success in the years ahead.
