Summary:
ZIP code 73095 has three schools serving prekindergarten through grade 12: Wayne Elementary (PK–5), Wayne Middle (grades 6–8) and Wayne High (grades 9–12). Results differ substantially across the schools, so families will find a stronger ELA and math profile at the elementary level, a science bright spot at the middle school, and the largest academic concerns at the high school. In 2025–26, Wayne High was below the state in all four reported subjects, with U.S. History proficiency 36 percentage points lower.
Wayne Elementary had the strongest all-grades ELA result, at 41% proficient—15 points above the state—and the highest math result, at 24%, just below the state. Its lead is not consistent across grades: fourth-grade math was 13 points below the state, even though third-grade results were above state levels in both ELA and math. Wayne Middle stands out in science: 40% were proficient, 10 points above the state and 35 points above Wayne High. High’s all-grades results were especially low in math (3% versus 25% statewide) and science (5% versus 30%).
Recent results show mixed progress: among the same nine school-subject comparisons available for both years, the average gap below the state widened by about 2 points, from about 9 points in 2024–25 to about 10 in 2025–26. Gains included Wayne Middle science, up 19 points, while Wayne High U.S. History fell 27 points. SchoolDigger ranks Elementary at the 69th percentile (3 stars), Middle at the 27th (1 star) and High at the 5th (0 stars). High’s 90% graduation rate in 2024–25 and 0% chronic absenteeism in 2025–26 are positive counterpoints to its test results. The 2024–25 free/reduced lunch eligible shares were 64% at Elementary, 76% at Middle and 67% at High; these are contextual observations, not explanations for achievement. Schools serve different grade spans, and small enrollments mean results may reflect relatively small groups of test-takers.
