Summary:
ZIP code 73096 includes five Weatherford schools serving grades PK–12, with 2,268 students across two elementary schools, two middle schools and one high school. Four schools have reported 2025–2026 test results; Burcham Elementary School has no scores in the supplied data. The clearest area-wide strength is math: the four reporting schools average 41%, compared with 25% statewide, a 16-point advantage, though results vary by 21 points from school to school.
General Thomas P Stafford Elementary School and East Intermediate School tie for the top all-grades math result at 50%, 25 points above the state; East also leads science at 45%. Weatherford High School has the highest ELA result, 45%, and the only reported U.S. History result, 55%—14 points above the state. At the other end, Weatherford Middle School has the lowest ELA result at 22%, 4 points below the state, but its science score of 44% is second only to East’s. SchoolDigger ranks Weatherford High at the 91st percentile (5 stars), Stafford at the 84th (4 stars) and Weatherford Middle at the 76th (4 stars).
Recent trends are mixed: the four-school ELA average fell 2 points from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, while math rose 1 point and the three-school science average climbed 8 points. East’s math score rose 11 points, while Stafford’s fell 8; East also gained 11 points in science. School characteristics offer context, but do not line up in a simple way with results: in 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible shares among schools with scores ranged from 41% at Weatherford High to 55% at Stafford, and student-teacher ratios ranged from 15.1 at Weatherford Middle to 17.4 at Stafford. Chronic absenteeism was highest at Weatherford Middle, 20% versus 16% statewide, while Stafford had the lowest rate at 11%. Burcham’s lack of test-score entries and the schools’ different grade spans limit direct comparisons across all five schools.
