Overview

Skyline School is a public secondary school located two miles west of Pratt, Kansas, serving students in grades K-12. The school is operated by Skyline USD 438 school district. Skyline High School is one of two high schools serving the city of Pratt. The school colors are Columbia blue and white, although you may see Deep Sky blue or Navy blue alongside Columbia blue, and the school mascot is the Thunderbird. Skyline High School is a member of the Kansas State High School Activities Association and offers a variety of sports programs. Athletic teams compete in the 2A division in the Heart of the Plains League and are known as the "Thunderbirds". Extracurricular activities are also offered in the form of performing arts, school publications, and clubs. History The Kansas Legislature in 1963 passed the Unification Law requiring each county to form a planning unit for consolidation, including establishment of district boundaries, and to present that plan to the state superintendent of instruction for approval, with plans to be voted on in special local elections and unified districts consolidated and operational by 1966. The legislature mandated an anticipated enrollment of at least 400 students in grades K-12. The planning unit in Pratt County was led by Bob Moore of Byers. The Pratt County schools ultimately consolidated into Skyline included Byers, Coats, Cullison, and Sawyer. For the first five years of Skyline's existence, Sawyer continued to educate students in grades Kindergarten through six. Iuka was originally included in consolidation plans, but later voted to send its students to Pratt High School since Iuka had its own grade school at the time. The school was named "Skyline" after the Skyline League in which the consolidated schools had played. The school colors of Columbia blue and white were chosen so as not to match the school colors of any consolidated school. The "Thunderbird" mascot was chosen in homage to the United States Air Force Academy, whose colors were also blue and white.
