Best Public Schools in Burkburnett, TX


Summary:

The city of Burkburnett, Texas is home to 5 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one of which is an alternative school). The schools in this Burkburnett Independent School District (Isd) demonstrate a mix of strengths and areas for improvement.

Burkburnett Middle School stands out as a consistent performer, ranking in the top half of Texas middle schools and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its test scores, particularly in reading, are above the district and state averages. In contrast, Burkburnett High School has a strong 96.3% four-year graduation rate, significantly higher than the state average, but its test scores are mixed, with some subjects above and others below the district and state levels.

The district's schools serve a predominantly white student population, with Hispanic students making up the next largest group. However, the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch is quite high, ranging from 45% at Burkburnett High School to 68% at Gateway Student Support Center, an alternative high school. This suggests significant socioeconomic challenges facing the district, which may impact student learning and achievement. Additionally, the wide range in spending per student, from $7,962 at Overton Ray Elementary to $13,522 at Gateway Student Support Center, raises questions about resource allocation and equity within the district.
