Summary:
The 73047 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Hinton school district. While Hinton Elementary School stands out as a strong performer, with students exceeding state averages in 3rd grade ELA and Math, the middle and high schools face significant challenges in academic achievement.
The data reveals stark differences in performance between the schools. Hinton Elementary consistently ranks in the top half of Oklahoma elementary schools and boasts a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, along with a lower student-teacher ratio of 14:1. In contrast, Hinton High School struggles, with only 28.8% of 11th graders proficient in ELA and just 3.4% in Math, well below the state averages. The high school's 4-year graduation rate of 80.1% also lags behind the state average.
Across all 3 schools, high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients, ranging from 70.3% to 79.9%, suggest the district faces significant socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting student achievement. Additionally, the wide variation in spending per student, with the high school spending nearly twice as much as the middle school, raises questions about how resources are being allocated and whether the funding is being used effectively to support student learning.
