Summary
Pat Henry Elementary School is a public school in Lawton, Oklahoma, serving 525 students in prekindergarten through grade 5. Its 2025–26 proficiency rates were below state results in English language arts (ELA), math, and science. The most important finding for parents is that performance is low across subjects, with ELA the clearest weakness.
Compared with the district, state, and nearby same-district schools, math is Pat Henry’s relative bright spot, while ELA is weakest. In 2025–26, ELA proficiency was 8%, compared with 16% in Lawton, 26% statewide, and a nearby-school average of 15—gaps of 8, 18, and 7 percentage points. Math was 16%, equal to the district, 9 points below the state, and 4 points below the nearby average of 20%. Science was 15%, 2 points below the district, 15 below the state, and 3 below the nearby average of 18%. These comparisons show that the challenge is broad, not limited to one subject.
Results have recently declined in ELA and science, while math improved slightly: from 2024–25 to 2025–26, ELA fell 4 percentage points to 8%, science fell 8 points to 15%, and math rose 1 point to 16%. SchoolDigger gives the school a 10th-percentile overall standing and one star, ranking it 563rd of 626; that percentile is the third-lowest among nine nearby same-district schools with a current ranking. The 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 15.7, below the nearby average of 17.1. Also in 2024–25, 93% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, the third-highest share among those nearby schools. One notable exception in SchoolDigger’s statewide group rankings is Special Education Students: the group ranked at the 86th percentile in 2025–26, compared with the school’s overall 10th percentile, up from the group’s 20th percentile in 2023–24. That ranking is a notably stronger relative standing for the group, not a measure of any individual student’s outcome.
