Understanding the 10/10 Rating
Alex Public Schools has earned an overall SchoolDistrictFinder rating of 10/10, placing it in the top-tier tier. Our ratings are based on state assessment results — the share of students scoring proficient or above in reading and math, as reported in the U.S. Department of Education’s EDFacts collection (2017–18 school year). We average each district’s reading and math proficiency, then rank it against other districts in the same state to produce a 1–10 score. Because Oklahoma is compared only against itself, the rating reflects how this district performs relative to its in-state peers.
Alex Public Schools ranks among the highest-performing public school districts in Oklahoma on state assessments, with reading and math proficiency rates in roughly the top 10–20% statewide. Homes in and around zip code 73011 often carry a measurable premium relative to neighboring areas served by lower-rated districts.
