Calera High School

Summary:

Calera High School is a public high school in Calera, Oklahoma, serving 220 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Calera School District, which is ranked 190 out of 342 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Calera High School has faced significant challenges in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from a high of 47th out of 251 Oklahoma high schools in 2015-2016 to 268th out of 431 in 2023-2024. The school's performance varies greatly across different student subgroups, with Native American students ranking 50th out of 187 Oklahoma high schools, while White students rank 303rd out of 346. Calera High School's test scores are consistently below the state average, with only 27.1% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 10.4% in Mathematics for the 2023-2024 school year. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, reaching 70% in the 2023-2024 school year.

Despite the challenges, Calera High School is located within a relatively short distance (less than 20 miles) from several other high schools, such as Durant High School and Caddo High School, which have higher rankings and better academic performance. This proximity presents both opportunities and challenges for Calera High School, as the school may be able to learn from and collaborate with these higher-performing institutions to improve its own outcomes and provide a more equitable education for all its students.

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.
