Kingston’s public schools outscore 77% of Oklahoma districts

In Kingston, 30% of tested students are proficient in math, above the Oklahoma average (25%). The grade covers the public school district serving Kingston, from kindergarten through graduation, on state tests and graduation. Each state writes its own tests, so this is the one TownRatings grade compared within Oklahoma, not nationally.
