Summary:
ZIP code 66063 has one elementary school, Forest View Elementary, serving prekindergarten through grade 5 and enrolling 419 students. With no other elementary schools in the local list, families can compare its results with Olathe and Kansas, but not with nearby school peers. The most important finding is that in 2025–26 Forest View’s proficiency rates were above the state’s in all three subjects: 72% in English language arts (ELA) versus 46% statewide, 71% in math versus 41%, and 69% in science versus 38%.
Forest View is the only listed school, so there is no local top-versus-bottom comparison; its strongest subject relative to the state is science, while its highest proficiency rate is in ELA. Its all-grades leads over Kansas were 26 percentage points in ELA, 30 in math, and 31 in science. Results were above the state in every reported grade and subject, with the biggest grade-level advantage in grade 5 math: 79% at Forest View versus 45% statewide, a 34-point lead. Grade 4 math was also notably strong, at 75% versus 44%, a 31-point lead. The school’s reported chronic absenteeism rate was 3%, compared with 13% in Olathe and 18% statewide.
Proficiency rose at Forest View from 2024–25 to 2025–26, especially in science: ELA increased by about 1 point, math by 4, and science by 9. The school’s average across the three subjects rose by 4 points, while the state average was nearly unchanged; the average gap widened by 4 points. SchoolDigger ranks Forest View 31st of 657 statewide for 2025–26, at the 95th percentile with 5 stars, improving 26 places from its 2023–24 rank. Context measures include a student–teacher ratio of 15:1 and a free/reduced-lunch rate of 11% in 2024–25; these describe the school but do not establish why its results are high. Because only one school is listed, the available data cannot show how Forest View compares with similar local schools.
