Summary:
The city of Tyrone, Oklahoma is home to two schools - Tyrone Elementary School and Tyrone High School. While both schools serve economically disadvantaged student populations, with over 70% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, their academic performance has shown divergent trends.
Tyrone Elementary School has seen a concerning decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 389 out of 846 Oklahoma elementary schools in 2010-2011 to 789 out of 957 schools in 2014-2015. This decline is accompanied by a drop in the school's SchoolDigger rating from 3 stars to 1 star. In contrast, Tyrone High School has experienced more fluctuating performance, with its ranking ranging from 48 out of 449 schools in 2014-2015 (4-star rating) to 286 out of 439 schools in 2022-2023 (2-star rating).
While Tyrone High School maintains a relatively high statewide ranking, its academic proficiency rates in CCRA/English Language Arts (38.1%) and CCRA/Mathematics (9.5%) for 11th-grade students in 2023-2024 are concerning. This suggests that the Tyrone school district may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the academic challenges faced by its students, while also considering the socioeconomic factors that may be impacting their performance.
