Ardmore

The Ardmore school district in Oklahoma consists of 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is underperforming compared to the state, ranking 240 out of 250 school districts and receiving a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, some individual schools within the district stand out, such as Lincoln Elementary School, which has the lowest student-teacher ratio among the elementary schools, and Will Rogers Elementary School, which has the second-best student-teacher ratio and the lowest percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients.

The racial makeup of the student population varies across the schools, with Jefferson Elementary School having the highest percentage of Hispanic students (33.08%) and Lincoln Elementary School having the highest percentage of white students (37.42%). Ardmore High School stands out with the highest percentage of students from two or more racial backgrounds (21.97%). However, test scores across the district are generally below the state averages, with Ardmore Middle School's 8th-grade English Language Arts proficiency at just 9% compared to the state average of 20%.

The high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients, ranging from 69.11% at Ardmore High School to 86.47% at Jefferson Elementary School, indicate a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which may contribute to the overall academic performance challenges faced by the Ardmore School District. Addressing these issues and implementing targeted interventions may be necessary to improve educational outcomes for the students in this area.
