About schools in Ward County
Five public schools across two districts — that's the full scope of Ward County's education landscape, concentrated mainly in Monahans with a smaller presence in Grandfalls. It's a compact system shaped by West Texas geography and oil-patch economics. Tatom Elementary leads the county at the 73rd percentile statewide, a meaningful gap above the other local options. No Ward County school currently ranks in the top quartile statewide, so families with strong academic priorities should weigh that context carefully. For those already rooted in the Permian Basin, Tatom represents the clearest bright spot worth looking into.
