Summary:
The 68503 zip code area of Lincoln, Nebraska is home to two elementary schools: Clinton Elementary School and Hartley Elementary School, both part of the Lincoln Public Schools district.

Clinton Elementary and Hartley Elementary have significantly lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to the Lincoln Public Schools district and the state of Nebraska. Both schools also struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates, at 19.3% for the 2024-2025 school year.
