Cheyenne High School

Summary:

Cheyenne High School is a small public high school in Cheyenne, Oklahoma, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 79. The school has a predominantly White student body, in contrast to the more diverse nearby schools like Sweetwater High School and Merritt High School.

While Cheyenne High School once ranked 1st out of 428 Oklahoma high schools in 2008-2009, its performance has since declined, and it now ranks 230th out of 439 high schools in the state. The school's test scores in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally lower than the state averages, with only 37.5% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 13.3% in 2020-2021. Additionally, Cheyenne High School has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 34.18% to 40.26% over the past three school years, suggesting a higher proportion of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

These findings indicate that Cheyenne High School may need to focus on improving academic instruction and support, particularly in core subjects, and addressing the needs of its economically disadvantaged student population. The school's racial homogeneity compared to nearby districts like Sweetwater and Merritt may also be an important factor to consider when developing strategies for improvement.

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.
