Zip code 67501 has one listed high school, Hutchinson High School, serving grades 9–12 and enrolling 1,214 students. In 2025–2026, its proficiency was 38% in English language arts (ELA), 32% in mathematics, and 30% in science. The clearest overall finding is that the school scored above Hutchinson Public Schools in all three subjects, but below the state: it led the district by 6 points in ELA, 8 in mathematics, and 4 in science, while trailing the state by 8, 9, and 8 points, respectively.
ELA is the school’s strongest subject, and science is its lowest, with an 8-point difference between them.

The 2024–2025 dropout rate was 2%, compared with 2% for the district and 1% statewide.
