Union City

The Union City school district in Oklahoma consists of two schools: Union City Elementary School and Union City High School. While the elementary school serves a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, the high school is struggling with low academic performance, with proficiency rates well below state averages in core subjects.

Union City Elementary School has a relatively high percentage of students (63.59%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. In contrast, Union City High School has a lower free/reduced lunch rate of 55.21%. However, the high school's academic performance is a concern, with only 32.1% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, 10.7% in Mathematics, 14.3% in Science, and 39.3% in U.S. History.

Both schools have low state-wide rankings, with Union City Elementary ranked 398 out of 957 Oklahoma elementary schools and Union City High School ranked 279 out of 439 Oklahoma high schools. This suggests the schools are performing below average compared to their peers. The per-student spending also varies, with the high school spending $11,767 per student compared to $7,322 per student at the elementary school. Further analysis and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the challenges faced by these schools and improve educational outcomes for the Union City community.
