About Leedey ES
Leedey Elementary School serves 154 students across grades PK through 8 in Leedey, Oklahoma. The school earns a composite score of 9.1 out of 10 — rated Exceptional — with academic performance at 9.2 and growth at 9.1. Those scores translate into a clear statewide position.
Leedey ES ranks 19th out of 1,747 public schools in Oklahoma, outperforming 99% of schools across the state. Narrowed to elementary schools, it climbs to 10th out of 915 — one of the strongest performances in Oklahoma regardless of enrollment. A 14.0-to-1 student-teacher ratio keeps classes small across all nine grade levels.
Running grades PK through 8 under one roof gives families a long stretch of continuity before transitioning to high school. The near-identical academic and growth scores — 9.2 and 9.1 — signal something important: students here are not just starting from a strong baseline but actively gaining ground year over year. That combination of high attainment and measurable improvement is what earns the Exceptional rating and distinguishes Leedey ES from peers that perform well on only one of those dimensions.
