Tahoka El

Tahoka EL is a elementary school located in Tahoka, TX, serving grades -1–5 and approximately 298 students. Operated by Tahoka ISD, the campus sits about 28.4 miles from The Lubbock's newsroom and is part of The Lubbock's ongoing local education coverage.

The school employs roughly 27 full-time-equivalent classroom teachers for a student-to-teacher ratio of about 11.0:1. That ratio is below the state average for TX, generally an indicator of smaller class sizes and more individualized instruction.

State accountability ratings for TEA are released annually and combine student achievement, growth, and closing-the-gaps metrics. The Lubbock publishes rating updates as soon as they become public each fall, with comparisons to nearby campuses and prior-year trends.

For families in Tahoka considering elementary placement, Tahoka EL is one of the campuses The Lubbock regularly covers — including school board decisions, bond elections, and individual program changes that affect enrollment.
