Summary:
The city of Oilton, Texas is home to a single school, Oilton Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 and has a total enrollment of 108 students. The school is part of the Webb Consolidated Independent School District and has a predominantly Hispanic student population, with 96.3% of students identifying as Hispanic.
Academically, Oilton Elementary is struggling, with STAAR reading and math proficiency rates significantly below the state averages across all grade levels. The school's reading proficiency rates range from 21.05% to 42.86%, compared to the state average of 48.85% to 53.96%, while its math proficiency rates range from 16.67% to 35.71%, compared to the state average of 40.86% to 48.96%. However, the school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate of 28.57% is slightly above the state average of 26.29%.
Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.7 to 1 and higher-than-average per-student spending of $19,208, Oilton Elementary's academic performance remains consistently below state benchmarks. This may be due to the school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 73.15% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. The school's statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating have also fluctuated in recent years, suggesting instability in educational outcomes and the need for targeted interventions and resource allocation strategies to improve the academic achievement of Oilton Elementary's students.
