Best Public Schools in Oxford, KS

Summary:

The city of Oxford, Kansas is home to three schools: Oxford Elementary School, Oxford Junior/Senior High School, and Oxford Online Virtual School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade, providing a range of educational options for the Oxford district.

Oxford Elementary School stands out as a high-performing institution, consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in Kansas. With a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, the school boasts strong academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts, where proficiency rates exceed the district and state averages.
