Summary:

The 67879 zip code area is home to a single elementary school, Greeley County Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 and has a total enrollment of 119 students. The school is part of the Greeley County Schools district, which is ranked 237 out of 264 districts in Kansas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Greeley County Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kansas elementary schools over the past 3 school years, with a ranking of 583 out of 656 in 2024-2025, 519 out of 653 in 2023-2024, and 518 out of 660 in 2022-2023. The school's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better on the KAP (Kansas Assessment Program) tests, is well below the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels. In 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 19.99% to 27.77% in ELA and 20% to 24.99% in Math, compared to state averages of 44.47% in ELA and 38.73% in Math.

Despite the school's low performance, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.9, which is lower than the state average. However, this does not seem to be translating into better academic outcomes. The school also has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 45.38% in the 2023-2024 school year, suggesting that it serves a socioeconomically disadvantaged population. Overall, the data suggests that Greeley County Elementary School is a struggling school that is in need of significant improvement and support to better serve its students and community.
