Prue

The town of Prue, Oklahoma is home to two schools - Prue Elementary School and Prue High School. While Prue Elementary is performing well above state averages in 8th grade English Language Arts, Prue High School is struggling across multiple subject areas for 11th grade, with proficiency rates below 25%.

Both schools serve a majority white student population and have extremely high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, over 84% at each school. This suggests the Prue community faces significant economic challenges that may be impacting student achievement. Additionally, the schools have seen a decline in their state rankings over the past decade, indicating systemic issues that warrant further investigation.

While Prue Elementary spends $8,000 per student, Prue High School spends $9,643 per student, an interesting data point that could suggest a need to re-evaluate resource allocation across the district. Overall, the data paints a complex picture of the Prue school system, with both successes and significant challenges that require further analysis and potential intervention.
