About Scandia

Scandia is a city in Republic County, Kansas, United States. The 2020 census counted 344 residents. The first American flag to be flown in what is now Kansas was raised in 1806 near the area of Scandia. The area was not settled until much later by Swedish immigrants and was first called New Scandinavia. School unification consolidated Courtland and Scandia schools forming USD 426. That mix gives Scandia a clear local shape within Kansas, with older layers still visible in current places. The local scoop is a place whose streets, landmarks, and institutions keep its earlier story close to the present.
