High Schools in Laverne

The Laverne area has only one high school, Laverne High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past several years, dropping from the top 20% of Oklahoma high schools in 2014-2015 to the top 30-40% in more recent years, suggesting it may be struggling to maintain its academic performance compared to other schools in the state.

Laverne High School has a diverse student population, with a majority White (65.41%) and a significant Hispanic (32.33%) student body. However, the school also serves a relatively economically disadvantaged population, with over 43% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This factor can often correlate with lower academic achievement and may require additional resources and support.

Academically, Laverne High School's performance is mixed, with stronger results in U.S. History (52% proficient) but weaker outcomes in English Language Arts (34.6% proficient), Mathematics (30.8% proficient), and Science (15.4% proficient). Despite relatively high spending per student ($15,233 in 2018-2019), the school's academic outcomes suggest a need for targeted interventions and resource allocation to support student success and improve the school's competitiveness within the state.
