Summary:
The city of Beggs, Oklahoma is home to three schools: Beggs Elementary School, Beggs High School, and Beggs Middle School. While Beggs Elementary School has consistently ranked among the top elementary schools in the state, the district's middle and high schools have struggled with lower rankings and test scores compared to state averages.
Beggs Elementary School stands out as the top performer, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and significantly higher test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics than the state averages. In contrast, Beggs High School has been ranked in the bottom 15% of Oklahoma high schools for the past three years, with low proficiency rates in core subjects. Beggs Middle School has a mixed performance, with some grades exceeding state averages and others falling below.
The data also reveals that all three schools in Beggs have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 68.85% to 70.66%, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges in the community. The differences in per-student spending across the schools suggest that the district could benefit from a more equitable distribution of resources to support the needs of all students and improve academic outcomes throughout the Beggs school district.
