Healdton Elementary School up 150 spots statewide this year
Summary:

Zip code 73438 has three public schools in the Healdton area, serving preschool through grade 12: Healdton Elementary School enrolls 237 students, Healdton Middle School 97, and Healdton High School 149. The most important finding is that results differ sharply by subject and school: Elementary leads in Math and Science, High leads in English Language Arts (ELA), and Middle has the weakest ELA and Math results.

Healdton Elementary stands out in 2025–2026 Science, with 44% proficient—14 percentage points above the state—and Math, with 28%, 3 points above the state. Healdton High leads ELA at 34%, 8 points above the state’s 26%; it is also the only school with reported U.S. History results, at 41%, matching the state. Healdton Middle is at the bottom in ELA (8%) and Math (10%), respectively 18 and 15 points below state results. Its Science score is higher than High’s, however: 27% versus 22%. Grade-level results also vary within schools, so a school’s all-grades leader status does not mean it leads in every grade.

Across the same nine school-subject results, the average rose from 17% in 2024–2025 to 22% in 2025–2026, while the state average stayed around 27%; the average gap narrowed from 10 to 5 percentage points. That improvement was uneven: Elementary Science jumped 30 points, while High Math fell 1 point and Middle ELA fell 1. SchoolDigger’s rankings also diverge: High rose from the 19th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 53rd in 2025–2026; Elementary rebounded from the 26th to the 51st percentile in the latest year; Middle was at the 8th percentile, down from 16th the previous year. All three schools reported free/reduced lunch eligible (FRL) for 2024–2025: 76% at Elementary, 78% at Middle, and 73% at High. Their student–teacher ratios were 19.5, 22.2, and 18.6, respectively; these figures provide context but do not follow the same pattern as academic results.
