Best Elementary Schools in Zip Code 67669

Elementary schools in ZIP code 67669 consist of one school, Stockton Elementary, which serves pre-K through eighth grade and has 199 students. Its 2025–26 all-grades proficiency was above Kansas averages in English language arts (ELA), math and science, with the strongest advantage in science: about 50% proficient, compared with 38% statewide, a 12-point lead. The most important takeaway is that the school’s overall results are above the state in all three subjects, but its science advantage is much larger than its ELA or math lead.

There are no other schools in the ZIP code to rank against Stockton Elementary; within the school, the standout results are in middle-school math, while elementary-grade math is the clearest weak spot. Seventh graders reached 81% proficiency, 43 points above the state, and eighth graders reached 69%, 29 points above it. By contrast, grades 3–6 were below state math proficiency, by 18 points in grade 3, 12 in grade 4, 17 in grade 5 and 2 in grade 6. ELA also varied by grade: the school was 14 points above the state in grade 8, but 10 points below in grade 4 and 9 points below in grade 6. These grade-level contrasts matter more than the modest all-grades leads of 2 points in ELA and 4 in math.

Compared with 2024–25, Stockton Elementary’s advantage over the state grew overall, largely because science improved while ELA declined. Its science proficiency rose about 5 points as the state fell 3, widening the school’s lead from 4 to 12 points; its math lead grew from 3 to 4 points, while its ELA lead narrowed from 8 to 2. SchoolDigger’s ranking moved in the opposite direction from the favorable state comparisons: the school fell from the 55th percentile (295 of 656 schools) and 3 stars to the 34th percentile (431 of 657) and 2 stars. Chronic absenteeism was 18%, close to the state’s 18% and below the Stockton district’s 27%; the reported student-teacher ratio was 12.4, and the free/reduced-lunch rate was 59%. These are descriptive figures, not explanations of achievement; with only one listed school, local school-to-school comparisons are not possible.
