Schools in Vega ISD · Oldham County

Four of Oldham County's six ranked public schools land in the top quartile statewide — a remarkable concentration of high performance for a rural Texas Panhandle county whose largest towns number only in the hundreds. Vega ISD leads the way, with Vega Junior High ranking at the 97th percentile across Texas and Vega Elementary close behind at the 92nd.
