About schools in Yoakum County
Yoakum County's public schools occupy the middle tier of Texas rankings, with none of the county's six schools breaking into the top quartile statewide. Spread across two small West Texas districts — Denver City and Plains — the schools serve communities shaped more by oil country and wide-open ranchland than by suburban resources. Kelley Elementary leads the pack at the 51st percentile statewide, followed by Plains High School at the 46th. Families relocating to Denver City or Plains will find modestly performing schools that reflect the rural realities of this corner of the Llano Estacado rather than standout academic results.
