Adair

The Adair school district in Oklahoma consists of three schools: Bernita Hughes Elementary School, Adair High School, and Adair Middle School. The district as a whole is highly ranked, with Adair being the 15th best out of 295 districts in Oklahoma and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bernita Hughes Elementary School stands out as a top-performing school, ranking 33rd out of 276 Oklahoma elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating. The school consistently outperforms state and district averages in OSTP test scores, despite serving a relatively high percentage of students from low-income families. In contrast, Adair High School is one of the top-performing high schools in the state, ranking 13th out of 439 schools and earning a 5-star rating. The high school's CCRA test scores for 11th grade are significantly higher than the state averages.

The schools in the Adair district also reflect the diversity of the local community, with a significant Native American student population ranging from 27.78% at Bernita Hughes Elementary School to 40.07% at Adair High School. However, the district's funding allocation varies, with Adair High School spending nearly $5,000 more per student than Bernita Hughes Elementary School. This disparity is an area that could benefit from further investigation to ensure equitable funding across the district.
