ZIP code 67740 has one listed elementary school, Hoxie Elementary, serving prekindergarten through grade 6 with 253 students. In 2025–2026, its all-grade results were above Kansas’s in English language arts (ELA), mathematics, and science, but the science lead was small: 2 percentage points. The most important finding is that Hoxie remains above the state in all three subjects, even as its earlier advantages have narrowed.
Because Hoxie is the only school in the list, there is no local school-to-school comparison; within the school, sixth-grade mathematics stands out at the top, while third-grade mathematics is the clearest weak spot.

ELA was steadier across grades: scores ranged from 50% to 54%, with sixth grade 11 points above the state and fifth grade 1 point below.
