Summary:
Schools in ZIP code 74818 include six schools serving preschool through grade 12, from Betty L. Smith Childhood Center through the two high schools, Seminole High School and Academy Of Seminole High School. The other schools are Wilson Elementary School, Northwood Elementary School, and Seminole Middle School. Results vary by school, grade, and subject, so there is no fair single ranking across all six. The clearest overall standout is Academy Of Seminole: its grade 11 results led the other high school in all four tested subjects.
Academy Of Seminole recorded 58% proficiency in grade 11 ELA, 29% in math, 40% in science, and 66% in U.S. History. Compared with Seminole High, those results were higher by 26, 24, 17, and 25 percentage points, respectively; Academy was also above the state in all four subjects. Seminole High’s weakest result was math at 5%, 12 points below the state and 24 below Academy. Results at the other schools are mixed: Northwood grade 5 science was 12%, 23 points below the state, while Wilson grade 3 math was 32%, just 1 point below. Betty L. Smith has no test results in the supplied data.
Recent changes are mixed rather than a consistent area-wide improvement: from 2024–25 to 2025–26, Seminole High improved in ELA and science but fell in math, while Northwood science and Wilson ELA also declined. SchoolDigger’s 2025–26 statewide percentile rankings place Academy at 97, Seminole High at 48, and Seminole Middle at 37; Academy has five stars, compared with two stars for each of the other two. Academy also has a lower student-teacher ratio (9.3) than the other schools, which range from 14.2 to 19.2. In 2024–25, its free/reduced lunch eligible share was 60%, compared with 75%–79% at the other five schools; these figures offer context, not an explanation for results.
