Meanwhile, Durant Intermediate Elementary School excels in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science proficiency, outperforming the district and state averages.

The data also reveals some common challenges across the schools, such as high rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 62.56% to 65.59%, and a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0% for all three schools. These factors may contribute to the academic performance disparities observed among the schools. The differences in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios suggest that resource allocation may play a role in the schools' academic outcomes, with Silo Middle School, the top performer, having the lowest per-student spending and the most favorable student-teacher ratio.
