Burns Flat-Dill City High School

Q: Is Burns Flat-Dill City High School a good school?

Burns Flat-Dill City High School ranks 147 th of 439 Oklahoma high schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 3 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Burns Flat-Dill City High School is a public high school serving 127 students in grades 9-12 in the small town of Burns Flat, Oklahoma. The school is part of the Arapaho-Butler School District, which is ranked 81 out of 295 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One key differentiator of Burns Flat-Dill City High School is its racial diversity, with a student body that is 66.14% White, 17.32% Hispanic, and 5.51% Native American. This is notably more diverse than nearby schools like Arapaho-Butler High School and Merritt High School, which have student populations over 70% White. However, the school's academic performance has been mixed, with its statewide ranking ranging from 58th out of 307 schools in 2020-2021 to 227th out of 350 schools in 2021-2022. While the school has struggled overall, it has performed well for certain subgroups, such as ranking 82nd out of 350 schools for White students and 52nd out of 380 schools for low socioeconomic status students in 2022-2023.

Another notable aspect of Burns Flat-Dill City High School is its high poverty rate, with 79.53% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023. This is significantly higher than the nearby Elk City (58.87%) and Clinton school districts. The school's high poverty rate may be a contributing factor to its overall academic challenges, as research has shown that students from low-income backgrounds often face additional obstacles that can hinder their educational outcomes.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
