Summary

Heartland Elementary is a 412-student school serving grades K–5 in Overland Park, in the Blue Valley area. Its 2025–26 proficiency rates were 74% in English language arts (ELA), 64% in math and 57% in science. The most important concern is fifth-grade math: 45% of students were proficient, about 20 points below the district rate and the lowest result among the nearby schools.

ELA is Heartland’s strongest subject locally: its 74% rate was 3 points above the district and 2 points above the nearby-school average, though it ranked sixth among Heartland and the 10 nearby schools. Science is the weakest local comparison: Heartland’s 57% was 5 points below the district and 10 points below the nearby average, and was just below every nearby school. For example, Indian Valley Elementary posted 57.1%. All three Heartland rates were above Kansas results. Grade-level results also vary: fourth-grade math was a standout at 76%, while fifth-grade math was 45%.

Math and science fell sharply in the latest year, dropping 8 and 10 points, respectively, from 2024–25; ELA was nearly unchanged. Compared with 2022–23, ELA was up 7 points, while math and science were down 2 and 1 point. SchoolDigger ranked Heartland 75th of 657 statewide, in the 89th percentile with four stars, down from 29th and five stars the year before; it ranked seventh among the 11 local schools. Its student–teacher ratio of 13.2 was close to the nearby average of 13.6, and its free/reduced-lunch rate was 16%, compared with a 15% nearby average. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well Heartland serves Asian students rose from the 41st percentile in 2023–24 to the 90th in 2025–26, close to its overall percentile. Its ranking for how well it serves low socioeconomic-status students fell from the 98th percentile in 2024–25 to the 76th in 2025–26.
