Choctaw Middle School

Summary:

Choctaw Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Choctaw-Nicoma Park School District, with a student population of 725 located in Choctaw, Oklahoma. The school has a diverse student body, with a racial makeup of 67.86% White, 4.83% African American, 8.83% Hispanic, 0.28% Asian, 5.52% Native American, and 12.55% two or more races.

Choctaw Middle School has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state averages in standardized test scores for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. For example, in 2022-2023, only 30% of 6th graders, 19% of 7th graders, and 17% of 8th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the district averages of 34%, 24%, and 22%, respectively. The school's performance in Mathematics is even more concerning, with only 25% of 6th graders, 18% of 7th graders, and 5% of 8th graders scoring proficient or better, compared to the district averages of 32%, 22%, and 17%. Additionally, Choctaw Middle School has a relatively high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 35.86% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year, which is higher than the district average.

Interestingly, while Choctaw Middle School's overall performance is concerning, the school appears to be performing relatively well for certain student subgroups. For example, in 2020-2021, the school ranked 19th out of 102 Oklahoma middle schools for Hispanic students and 23rd out of 80 for multi-racial students in English Language Arts. However, the school's performance is significantly lower than that of its neighboring Nicoma Park Middle School, which is also part of the Choctaw-Nicoma Park School District and consistently outperforms Choctaw Middle School on standardized tests and has a higher statewide ranking.

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.
