Summary

Leona H. Cox Community Elementary serves 459 students in grades K–6 in Canyon Country, where it is one of 10 nearby elementary schools in the comparison. Its 2025–26 results show a clear local strength: Leona ranked second nearby in English language arts (ELA) and third in math, with both results above state and district levels. The most important takeaway is that Leona’s ELA and math performance stands out both against benchmarks and among nearby schools.

ELA proficiency was 57%, compared with 49% statewide and 50% in the Sulphur Springs Union district; math was 51%, versus 38% statewide and 42% in the district. Leona had the highest ELA and math results among the five nearby schools in its district. However, schoolwide math masks a sharp grade-level difference: third-grade math proficiency was 76%, the highest among nearby schools, while sixth-grade math was 36%, below the state’s 37% and district’s 41%. Science is the clearest relative weakness: Leona’s 36% was just below state and district results and below the nearby-school average of 40%, ranking sixth of 10.

Results have generally improved since 2022–23: ELA rose 6 percentage points to 57%, math rose 9 points to 51%, and science rose 15 points to 36%. Leona’s overall SchoolDigger ranking reached the 71st percentile and 4 stars in 2025–26, up 3 percentile points from the previous year. Its 25.5:1 student-teacher ratio is close to the nearby average of 25.3:1. In 2024–25, 65% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, near the nearby average of 63%. Older SchoolDigger statewide rankings also show sharp changes in group-specific effectiveness: the English Language Learner Students ranking fell from the 65th percentile in 2017–18 to the 5th in 2021–22, while the White Students ranking fell from the 71st percentile in 2022–23 to the 43rd in 2023–24. These are historical group rankings, not current test results.
