Summary:
The Zion Public School is the only school in the Zion area list, serves prekindergarten through eighth grade, and enrolls 263 students. In 2025–2026, its all-grades proficiency was 16% in English Language Arts I, 21% in math and 17% in science, compared with state rates of 26%, 25% and 30%, respectively. The most important finding is that the school fell below Oklahoma in all three subjects, after scoring above the state in English Language Arts I and math the year before.
Fourth grade is the school’s clearest bright spot, while several results in later grades are much lower. In 2025–2026, fourth graders reached 55% in math, 22 points above the state rate of 33%, and 41% in English Language Arts I, 19 points above the state’s 22%. At the other end, seventh-grade English Language Arts I was 3%, 20 points below the state, and seventh-grade math was 6%, also 20 points below. Eighth-grade math was 0%, 17 points below the state; fifth-grade science was 11%, 24 points below. These are grade-level contrasts within one school, not a ranking among local schools.
All-grades results declined from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: English Language Arts I fell 13 points, math fell 7 and science fell 2. Science remained the most persistent relative weakness, with the school 11 points below the state in 2024–2025 and 13 below in 2025–2026; math was comparatively stronger, moving from 2 points above to 4 below. SchoolDigger’s ranking also moved down, from the 72nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 68th in 2024–2025 and the 51st in 2025–2026. Other context includes a student–teacher ratio of 11.5 in 2024–2025 and 67% free/reduced lunch eligible that school year. Chronic absenteeism was 7% in 2025–2026, below the state’s 16%. Because the list has only one school, it cannot show how Zion compares with nearby schools.
