Summary:

ZIP code 73860 has two schools: Waynoka Elementary School, serving prekindergarten through grade 8 with 166 students, and Waynoka High School, serving grades 9–12 with 66 students. Both have 2025–2026 results in English Language Arts I, mathematics and science. The most important finding is a sharp divide: Elementary scored above the state in all three subjects, while High scored below it in all three.

Elementary stands out at the top of the shared-subject comparison. In 2025–2026, it scored 38% in English Language Arts I, 47% in mathematics and 60% in science—12, 22 and 30 percentage points above the state, respectively. High scored 24%, 6% and 9%, below the state by 2, 19 and 21 points; the gaps between the schools were 14, 41 and 51 points. High also scored 36% in U.S. History, 5 points below the state, while Elementary has no reported result in that subject. Since the schools serve different grade spans, their all-grades results are not a same-grade comparison.

Recent trends are mixed rather than uniformly improving or declining. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, High gained 5 points in English Language Arts I, but fell 5 points in both mathematics and science; Elementary fell 1, 4 and 3 points in those subjects. High’s graduation rate was a notable strength at 97% in 2024–2025, compared with 78% statewide, despite its below-state test results. Its SchoolDigger ranking also fell from the 47th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 21st percentile in 2025–2026. As context, 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible shares were 52% at Elementary and 56% at High. Student-teacher ratios were 11.4 at Elementary and 7 at High. The Waynoka district has a SchoolDigger rating of 1 star and ranks 380 of 450 districts; this is a district rating, not a rating of either school.
