Summary:
ZIP code 73053 has one listed middle school, Lookeba-Sickles Junior High School, serving grades 7–8 and enrolling 37 students; its test results are reported for “All Grades.” The most important current academic finding is that the school’s 2025–26 proficiency was 11% in both English Language Arts I and mathematics, well below state results in each subject.
With only one school, Lookeba-Sickles Junior High School is both the highest- and lowest-performing school in the list, so that is not a meaningful local ranking. Compared with the state, its English Language Arts I result was 15 percentage points lower (11% versus 26%), and its math result was 14 points lower (11% versus 25%). It was also below the Lookeba Sickles district by 17 points in English Language Arts I and 15 points in math. One notable contrast is attendance: chronic absenteeism was 0% at the school, compared with 4% districtwide and 16% statewide. No SchoolDigger ranking or star rating is included in the supplied data.
Results moved in different directions over the two years: English Language Arts I fell from 21% in 2024–25 to 11% in 2025–26, while math rose from 0% to 11%. The state’s English Language Arts I result stayed at 26%, and its math result edged down from 26% to 25%, so the school’s state gap widened in English Language Arts I but narrowed in math. As context, 95% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25, and the student–teacher ratio that year was 15.1. Because this is the only listed school and results are reported for All Grades rather than separately for grades 7 and 8, there is no meaningful school-to-school comparison.
