Hinton

The Hinton school district in Oklahoma consists of three schools: Hinton Elementary School, Hinton Middle School, and Hinton High School. The district is ranked 309 out of 452 districts in Oklahoma and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Hinton Elementary School stands out with relatively high 3rd-grade test scores in ELA and Math, but also has a high free/reduced lunch rate of 78.26%, indicating a high-need student population. Hinton Middle School has strong 5th-grade Math performance but struggles with low 8th-grade Math scores. Hinton High School has relatively high 11th-grade U.S. History performance but low ELA and Math scores, as well as a low 4-year graduation rate of 82.2%.

Across the district, there are significant academic performance challenges, with most schools performing below the state averages in ELA, Math, and Science. The high free/reduced lunch rates suggest the schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, and the district faces concerns around equity and resource allocation. Additionally, the consistently high chronic absenteeism rate of 19% across all three schools is a significant issue that likely contributes to the academic performance challenges.
