In 2025–26, the three-school averages were 39% proficient in ELA, 32% in mathematics and 53% in science, compared with state results of 26%, 25% and 30%. The clearest overall finding is that results are generally above state levels, but vary notably by school and subject—especially in mathematics and science.

Each school has a distinct strength rather than leading across the board.

Cordell High School leads ELA at 44%, 4 points above the next-highest school, and is the only school with a reported U.S. History result: 60%, 19 points above the state. The lowest results are also subject-specific: Junior High is lowest in ELA (32%) and mathematics (23%, 2 points below the state), while High is lowest in science (37%).

All three schools improved in every tested subject from 2024–25 to 2025–26, with the largest changes in science: High gained 24 points and Junior High gained 23. The three-school average rose 3 points in ELA, 4 in mathematics and 16 in science.
