Caney

The Caney school district in Oklahoma consists of two schools - Caney Elementary School and Caney High School. While Caney Elementary School shows some promising signs, with improved test scores in Math, the overall performance of the schools in the district is mixed, with Caney High School facing significant challenges.

Caney Elementary School is ranked 381 out of 646 Oklahoma elementary schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has a relatively high free/reduced lunch rate of 72.22%, indicating a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students. However, the school spends $11,888 per student, which is higher than the state average, and maintains a student-teacher ratio of 13.5, which is lower than the state average.

In contrast, Caney High School is ranked 331 out of 431 Oklahoma high schools and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school struggles with academic performance, with only 25% of 11th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts and 5% in Mathematics. The school also has a below-average 4-year graduation rate of 80.1%. Despite the high spending per student of $15,495 and a low student-teacher ratio of 11, the school's performance suggests that resources may not be translating into better outcomes for students.
