However, the school is ranked 912 out of 957 Oklahoma elementary schools and has a 0-star rating. Macomb High School, with an enrollment of 75 students, is ranked 401 out of 439 Oklahoma high schools and also has a 0-star rating.

Both schools serve a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 76.7% of Macomb Elementary School students and 77.33% of Macomb High School students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
