Greeley County Elementary School up 166 spots statewide this year
Summary:

ZIP code 67879 includes three schools across the Leoti and Greeley County Schools districts: two elementary schools serving through grade 5 or 6 and a junior/senior high serving grades 6–12, with enrollments from 115 to 221. The clearest overall difference is between Wichita County Elementary, the all-grades leader, and Greeley County Junior/Senior High, which has the lowest results in all three subjects.

Wichita County Elementary stands out with 2025–26 proficiency of 75% in ELA, 72% in math, and 86% in science—29, 31, and 48 points above state rates, respectively. At the other end, Greeley County Junior/Senior High scored 31% in ELA, 28% in math, and 27% in science, falling 15, 13, and 11 points below the state. Greeley County Elementary School has a more mixed picture: its ELA and math results, 43% and 33%, were below state rates, while its 54% science result was 16 points above. Fifth grade is a strength at both elementary schools: Greeley County Elementary exceeded state results by 7 points in ELA, 9 in math, and 8 in science.

Results improved at both elementary schools between 2024–25 and 2025–26. Greeley County Elementary School had the largest gains, rising 18 points in ELA, 11 in math, and 21 in science; Wichita County Elementary gained 9, 6, and 13 points. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile for Wichita County Elementary climbed from 82 in 2023–24 to 97 in 2025–26. The high school’s ELA rose 4 points, but math fell 4 and science fell 10; it also had a 92% graduation rate versus 90% statewide. Its student-teacher ratio was the lowest, at 9.6, while all-grades proficiency was also lowest. Free/reduced-lunch rates were about 49% at both Greeley schools and 52% at Wichita County Elementary; these figures are context, not an explanation for results. Because the schools serve different grade spans and enroll only 115 to 221 students, all-grades comparisons are not fully like-for-like and rates can shift with relatively few students.
