Summary

Petrolia Junior High/High School is a small, rural campus in the Petrolia Consolidated Independent School District serving 233 students in grades 7 through 12, and it has achieved a remarkable turnaround from a 2-star rating to a consistent 4-star rating over the past three years.

This school stands out for its exceptional performance in upper-level English and history, with a 95% proficiency rate in U.S. History and a 79.49% proficiency rate in English II Reading—both far exceeding state averages and outperforming nearby schools like Henrietta High School and Burkburnett High School. Petrolia also excels in supporting students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking in the 85th percentile statewide for this group for three consecutive years, despite having a 65% economically disadvantaged population. The school maintains a perfect 0.0% dropout rate and a solid 92.6% graduation rate, while its low student-to-teacher ratio of 11.4:1 and above-average per-pupil spending of $15,209 create a supportive learning environment.

However, Petrolia shows a "Jekyll and Hyde" pattern in math, with 7th-grade proficiency at just 13.04% compared to 46.51% in 8th grade, suggesting performance depends heavily on the specific student cohort. The school also demonstrates a notable strength in science, consistently outperforming the state in Biology (76.47% vs. 70.51%), while struggling in Algebra I. When compared to its closest peer, Henrietta High School, Petrolia achieves stronger results in U.S. History and Biology despite serving a more economically challenged population, highlighting its effective use of resources to close achievement gaps and drive continuous improvement.
