High Schools in Enid

The Enid High School is the sole high school serving the Enid area. With an enrollment of 2,252 students, the school faces several challenges, including a declining state ranking, low academic proficiency rates, and a high poverty rate among its diverse student population.

Enid High School's state ranking has steadily declined in recent years, dropping from 200 out of 307 schools in 2020-2021 to 274 out of 439 schools in 2022-2023. This suggests the school's performance may be slipping compared to other high schools in Oklahoma. Additionally, the school's academic proficiency rates, particularly in math (12.3%) and science (11.9%), are significantly lower than the state average, indicating that students are struggling to meet grade-level standards in these core subjects.

With 65.9% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Enid High School serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population. This high poverty rate can present additional challenges in terms of providing resources and support for student learning. However, the school's diverse student body, with no single racial group making up a majority, could be an asset if the school is able to effectively meet the unique needs of its diverse learners. Despite the relatively high spending of $9,338 per student, the low academic performance suggests that the resources may not be translating into improved student outcomes.
