Summary:
The 79241 zip code area is home to 3 schools in the Lockney Independent School District (ISD), including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While Lockney High School boasts an impressive 100% four-year graduation rate, the district as a whole struggles with low academic performance, particularly in math and science.
The student population across the district is predominantly Hispanic, ranging from 79.56% at Lockney Elementary to 85.56% at Lockney J.H. (middle school). Additionally, Lockney Elementary has a very high percentage of students (85.08%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic challenges faced by the student population. This may contribute to the consistently low proficiency rates on STAAR tests across the district, with most schools scoring well below the state averages.
Despite the district's overall low performance, the small student populations at the schools (ranging from 90 to 181 students) may present opportunities for more personalized attention and support. However, the Lockney Independent School District is ranked 909 out of 968 districts in Texas and is rated 0 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, suggesting a need for comprehensive improvements in curriculum, instruction, and support for struggling students.
