Summary:

The 67156 zip code area is home to 4 elementary schools - Whittier Elementary, Irving Elementary, Lowell Elementary, and Country View Elementary. These schools are part of the Winfield School District, which has an overall ranking of 221 out of 264 districts in Kansas.

Among the 4 schools, Lowell Elementary stands out as the top performer, with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts (48.66%) and Mathematics (40.69%) in the 2024-2025 school year. Lowell's statewide ranking has also improved over the past few years, moving from the bottom 25% of Kansas elementary schools to the top 50%. In contrast, Irving Elementary struggles the most, with proficiency rates of only 23.87% in ELA and 19.92% in math during the same period.

While the schools serve populations with varying levels of economic disadvantage, as indicated by the free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 40% at Country View Elementary to 77.29% at Irving Elementary, the consistently high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.5% across all 4 schools is a concern that likely contributes to the overall academic underperformance in the district.
