Summary:
The city of Hinton, Oklahoma is home to three public schools serving students from elementary through high school: Hinton Elementary School, Hinton High School, and Hinton Middle School. Based on the available data, Hinton Elementary School appears to be the standout performer in the Hinton school district, with higher test scores and a stronger statewide ranking compared to the other two schools.
While Hinton Elementary School boasts 36% of 4th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts and 49-51% of 3rd and 4th graders proficient or better in Mathematics, Hinton High School struggles, with only 28.3% of 11th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, 8.7% in Mathematics, 10.6% in Science, and 31.9% in U.S. History. This low performance places Hinton High School in the bottom 25% of Oklahoma high schools.
Across the district, the high free and reduced lunch rates, ranging from 60-70%, indicate a significant economically disadvantaged student population, which may present challenges in terms of access to resources and support services. Additionally, the varying student-teacher ratios, with the middle school having the highest at 19.5, could be a contributing factor to the lower performance of the middle school compared to the elementary school. Overall, the Hinton school district appears to be underperforming, suggesting the need for a comprehensive review of educational practices, resource allocation, and support systems to improve student outcomes across all grade levels.
