High Schools in Frontier

There is only one high school located in Frontier, Oklahoma - Frontier High School. Serving grades 9-12, Frontier High School has faced significant challenges in recent years, with a dramatic decline in its statewide ranking and alarmingly low academic proficiency rates among its students.

Frontier High School, which is part of the Frontier School District, has a predominantly Native American student population (67.06%) and a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (62.35% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch). Despite a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 7.1 to 1, the school's proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and U.S. History are strikingly low, with only a small fraction of 11th-grade students meeting or exceeding the standards.

The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated significantly, dropping from 46th out of 350 schools in 2021-2022 to 427th out of 439 schools in 2022-2023, a concerning decline that raises questions about the underlying factors contributing to this performance. Addressing the academic challenges faced by Frontier High School will require a comprehensive review of the school's educational practices, resource allocation, and targeted interventions to support the success of its students, many of whom come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
