Britton Elementary School consistently underperforms compared to the Oklahoma City and state averages in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency.

In Mathematics, the proficiency rate was 14% at Britton, 12% in Oklahoma City, and 26% statewide. The school ranks particularly low for its African American and low socioeconomic status (SES) student subgroups, with 0 or 1 SchoolDigger star rating. Britton Elementary also has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 19% to 38.8% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average.

Britton Elementary's statewide ranking has dropped significantly, from 262 out of 845 Oklahoma elementary schools in 2009-2010 (3 stars) to 563 out of 614 in 2024-2025 (0 stars), suggesting a concerning trend of declining academic performance. The school performs significantly worse than the nearby Ridgeview Elementary, Nichols Hills Elementary, and HUPFELD Elementary schools, which all have higher proficiency rates, lower chronic absenteeism, and better overall rankings. The high rates of poverty and chronic absenteeism at Britton Elementary may be contributing factors to the school's low academic performance, and exploring alternative educational models, such as the nearby charter schools, could be crucial for improving outcomes for the students.
