As part of the Lincoln Public Schools district, Kloefkorn consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, with exceptional academic performance across various subjects and grade levels.

Kloefkorn's test scores significantly outpace the district and state averages, particularly in mathematics, where 3rd-grade proficiency rates range from 80-90%, compared to around 55-60% for the district and state. The school also boasts impressive 5th-grade science proficiency, reaching 94% in 2022-2023, well above the district (73%) and state (76%) averages.

Schools like Holmes, Calvert, and Zeman Elementary have significantly lower test scores and rankings, suggesting that Kloefkorn's success is not solely a function of the district's overall performance. The school's higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio may contribute to its strong academic outcomes, along with its focus on equity and inclusive practices.
