Summary:
Zip code 66748 has four schools in the Humboldt district, serving students across prekindergarten through grade 12. In 2025–2026, the school results varied sharply: mathematics proficiency ranged from 13% to 64%, while the three schools with science results clustered between 28% and 30%, all below the state’s 38%. The most important finding is that a single area-wide picture hides very different school results, especially in mathematics.
Humboldt Elementary stands out at the top: 49% were proficient in English language arts (ELA) and 64% in mathematics, about 3 and 23 percentage points above state results. Its math result was 27 points higher than the next-highest school, Humboldt Middle, at 36%; in ELA, Middle scored 39%, 11 points behind Elementary. Humboldt Virtual Education is the clearest low-end outlier, with 13% proficiency in both subjects. That is 37 points below Elementary in ELA and 51 points below it in math. Humboldt High scored 33% in ELA and 20% in math. In science, High led the reported results at 30%, but all three schools were 8 to 11 points below the state.
ELA and math averages improved from the prior year, though not at every school: the four-school averages rose about 5 points in ELA and 10 points in math, while Middle’s math result fell 3 points and High’s ELA fell 3 points. Science moved down: the average for Elementary and Middle declined 6 points, while the state fell 3 points. SchoolDigger ranks Elementary highest in the area at the 61st percentile, up from 29; Virtual is lowest at the 5th percentile, up from 2. Reported lunch eligibility and student–teacher ratios offer context, not explanations: Elementary’s figures are 51% and 16.3, compared with Middle’s 52% and 12.8 and High’s 49% and 12.5; Virtual has no figures reported for these measures. Science results are unavailable for Virtual.
