Summary:
The city of Geary, Oklahoma is home to 3 schools serving students from elementary through high school, all part of the Geary school district. While the schools face significant socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, they also show potential for providing more individualized attention to their students.
Geary Elementary School has shown improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from the bottom 25% to the middle 50% of Oklahoma elementary schools. However, the school's high-need student population, with 92.8% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, presents ongoing challenges. In contrast, Geary High School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, with academic performance, as measured by proficiency in English Language Arts and Mathematics, significantly below state averages.
The Geary Middle School has consistently been ranked in the bottom 25% of Oklahoma middle schools, with a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (89.66%). Despite these challenges, all three schools in the Geary school district have relatively low student-teacher ratios, ranging from 7.1 to 8.4, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention to their students.
