ZIP Code 64068 · Liberty, Missouri
Clay County · 14,914 counted · 4 districts
96 of the 14,914 homes here have no high school district named in the federal file.
Each percentage here is a share of the 14,914 homes counted in ZIP Code 64068, not the chance that any one address is in that district. Enrollment follows the street: two houses on opposite sides of the same road can be in different districts, and only the district office can say which.
4 districts are named for the early grades in ZIP Code 64068, Liberty, Missouri and fewer for high school: at least one of them runs the early grades only, and the file stops naming it above them. Nothing new arrives, so nobody moves to a district that was not already here; the answer narrows instead. 14,914 homes were counted, and Liberty 53 School District holds the most of them. The largest share leaves 1,983 homes elsewhere: 1,943 homes with North Kansas City 74, Kearney R-I and Missouri City 56 and 40 homes in districts too small to name here.
The early grades are divided four ways
4 districts hold a measurable share of ZIP Code 64068 at this level. Liberty 53 is the largest with 12,931 homes; the smallest of them holds 96 homes. Missouri City 56 is named here for grade school and not for high school.
Every track below is 35 cells long and stands for all 14,914 homes counted in ZIP Code 64068, so one cell is 426 homes, rounded to the nearest whole cell. Cells lit solid are the homes one district holds; the hatched cells at the end of a track are homes that no district of that kind is drawn to serve at all.

Below half a percent at the grade school level: Smithville R-II School District and Excelsior Springs 40 School District hold 40 homes between them, which is why they are counted under the list rather than inside it. A lookup that named them alongside the districts above would be listing a boundary crossing rather than an answer.

A district runs the early grades only
Missouri City 56 runs the early grades here and is not named for high school. Nobody moves to a district that was not already in the elementary answer: the list of names gets shorter, and the homes under the district that stops are picked up by one of the others or by no secondary district at all.
What one district name costs in 64068
A lookup that answers ZIP Code 64068 with one district name has to pick one of the names below and drop the rest. Measured against the 14,914 homes counted here, for the early grades it is wrong for 1,983 homes and for high school it is wrong for 1,983 homes. That is the whole difference between this page and a one-line answer: the same federal file, read to the end instead of to the first row.
The districts that reach into 64068
The districts named above are not alike in size or in reach. North Kansas City 74 touches 14 ZIP Code areas in all and holds 1,354 homes inside this one; Missouri City 56 touches 3 areas. Each is the only district in at least one other ZIP Code area, which is why a single-name answer works elsewhere and not here.

Look up 64068 again, or look up another ZIP Code
The lookup holds every ZIP Code area in the country with homes in it, including the ones with no page of their own. Opening it at 64068 recomputes the same 14,914 homes from the same snapshot, and typing five other digits answers for somewhere else. Nothing here is fetched from anywhere while you read: the whole index travels with the lookup page itself.
What to do next
Ask the district office to confirm your street address. A district settles that question on its own site: look for a school locator, a find my school tool, or an attendance zone map. Where there is none, ask the office itself.
A ZIP Code is a set of mail delivery routes, not a boundary: 1,983 of the 14,914 homes counted in 64068 sit outside the district holding the most of them, and the line between the two runs along streets rather than around the postal area.
This site links to no district website. None of the federal files it is built from publishes one, and a guessed address is worse than none. It is the district office, not a search engine, that settles an address.
What this site can hand you instead:
If a house purchase depends on the answer, ask the district itself for written confirmation of that exact address. A listing is not a district record, and neither is this page.
What this cannot tell you
The homes were counted in the 2020 Census and the district lines are the 2026 boundary file. Nothing on this page adjusts one to the other. Where houses have been built or cleared since the count, a share here describes the place as it was counted rather than as it stands today, and in the fastest-growing ZIP Code areas that gap is the largest single source of error on this site.
A share on this page is a share of the homes in the ZIP Code area, not a probability for any particular address. Enrollment is decided by street address, and a district may run magnet, charter or choice programs that ignore the boundary entirely. If a decision depends on the answer, the district office is the only authority; this page shows what the federal boundary files say and when they were published.
A district boundary is not a school attendance zone. This site never says which school an address is assigned to: no current national dataset of attendance zones exists, and the district draws them itself. Nor is anything here endorsed or certified by the Census Bureau; we use their published files, and that is the whole of the relationship.
A ZIP Code is a set of mail delivery routes, not an area. What is mapped here is the Census Bureau's ZIP Code Tabulation Area, the closest published approximation to it. The two are not identical, and a handful of ZIP Codes used only for post office boxes or single buildings have no tabulation area at all.
Where these numbers come from
School district boundaries come from the Census Bureau's Census Geographic Relationship File, current 2026 vintage, which assigns every census block to a unified district or to an elementary and a secondary district. Homes and residents in each block come from the 2020 Census Redistricting Data (PL 94-171), H1_001 and P1_001. The ZIP Code areas come from the same Geographic Relationship File, block to ZIP Code Tabulation Area. District names and grade ranges come from the Census Gazetteer 2025, with 2020 for districts no longer listed.
The place name printed beside a ZIP Code comes from the Census 2020 ZIP Code Tabulation Area relationship files: place, county subdivision and county, taken 2026-09-06. It is a label rather than a measurement: the Census Bureau does not publish which post office a ZIP Code belongs to, so the place named is the one covering the most land inside the area, not the city the Postal Service prints on an envelope.
Everything else on this page — the shares, the counts of districts per ZIP, the comparison between the two grade bands, the rankings — is computed here from those files. The source publishes none of it. Snapshot taken 2026-09-03.
