Summary:
Zip code 67544 has four Hoisington schools serving preschool through grade 12: Roosevelt Elementary (PK–1), Lincoln Elementary (grades 2–5), Hoisington Middle (grades 6–8), and Hoisington High (grades 9–12); enrollment ranges from 155 to 225 students. Test scores are not supplied for Roosevelt, and the schools’ different grade spans mean their all-grades results are not same-grade comparisons. The clearest overall finding is a wide divide between Lincoln’s strong reported results and High’s much lower results.
Lincoln leads the reported 2025–26 all-grades results, with 63% proficiency in ELA, 69% in math, and 74% in science—18, 28, and 36 percentage points above state results, respectively.
