Summary:
The city of Roland, Oklahoma is home to three schools serving students from elementary through high school: Roland Elementary School, Roland High School, and Roland Middle School. While Roland schools face socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, the district shows signs of improvement, particularly at the elementary level.
Roland Elementary School stands out as the strongest performer, outpacing the state average in 4th-grade math proficiency. However, the school still ranks in the bottom quarter of Oklahoma elementary schools, despite showing improvement in recent years. In contrast, Roland High School struggles academically, with low proficiency rates across multiple subject areas and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, placing it in the bottom quarter of Oklahoma high schools.
Across the district, the high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 69.74% at Roland Middle School to 88.29% at Roland Elementary School, suggest significant socioeconomic challenges that may impact academic performance and resource allocation. The district's focus on addressing these challenges and improving educational outcomes, particularly at the high school level, will be crucial for the success of Roland's students.
