Summary:
The city of Fort Cobb, Oklahoma is home to 3 public schools serving students from elementary through high school, all part of the Fort Cobb-Broxton school district. While the elementary and middle schools have seen steady improvements in their statewide rankings, the Fort Cobb-Broxton High School has experienced a decline, raising concerns about academic performance at the high school level.
The district faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with all three schools having high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 75% to 83%. This suggests the need to address equity in resource allocation, as the schools also show disparities in spending per student and student-teacher ratios. The Fort Cobb-Broxton Middle School stands out with the lowest student-teacher ratio at 7.6, while the high school has the highest spending per student at $13,370.
Despite these challenges, the district's elementary and middle schools have shown positive trends, with steady improvements in their statewide rankings over the past decade. This indicates that the district may be taking steps to address academic performance and provide a stronger foundation for student success. However, the high school's declining ranking and relatively low proficiency rates in core subjects suggest that more work is needed to ensure all students in the Fort Cobb-Broxton school district receive a high-quality education.
