Best Public Schools in Covington, OK

Summary:

The city of Covington, Oklahoma is home to two public schools: Covington-Douglas Elementary School and Covington-Douglas High School. These schools serve the Covington community, which faces significant socioeconomic challenges as evidenced by the high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients at both schools.

Covington-Douglas Elementary School stands out for its strong performance in mathematics, with 4th-grade students achieving 79% proficiency, far exceeding the state average of 35%. However, Covington-Douglas High School has struggled, with its 11th-grade students scoring below 50% proficiency in all subject areas, except for U.S. History at 45.5%. The high school's statewide ranking has also declined over time, dropping from 156th out of 449 high schools in 2014-2015 to 295th out of 439 in 2022-2023.

Another notable finding is the significant disparity in spending per student between the two schools. Covington-Douglas High School spends nearly twice as much per student ($16,647) compared to Covington-Douglas Elementary School ($8,565), which may warrant further investigation into the allocation of resources and its impact on student outcomes.
