Summary:
The 73065 zip code in Oklahoma is home to two elementary schools: Newcastle Elementary School and Newcastle Early Childhood Center. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and are part of the Newcastle school district.
Newcastle Elementary School has shown steady improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 237th out of 276 Oklahoma elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 190th out of 614 in 2024-2025. The school's test scores, particularly in mathematics, are generally higher than the district and state averages. Both schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, which may allow for more individualized attention for students.
While the two schools have similar free/reduced lunch rates, indicating a relatively high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, their performance metrics vary. This suggests that factors beyond just socioeconomic status may be influencing student outcomes. The data also highlights the need for ongoing monitoring and improvement efforts to ensure consistent high performance, as Newcastle Elementary School's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years.
