Cimarron High School

Q: Is Cimarron High School a good school?

Cimarron High School ranks 169 th of 439 Oklahoma high schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 3 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Cimarron High School is a small public high school serving grades 9-12 in the town of Lahoma, Oklahoma, with a student population of just 39 as of the 2022-2023 school year. While the school has a very low student-teacher ratio, it has generally lower test scores in core subjects compared to nearby schools like Pioneer-Pleasant Vale High School and Drummond High School. Additionally, Cimarron High School has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 53.19% to 61.54% over the past three school years, which is higher than some of the surrounding schools such as Kremlin-Hillsdale High School and Chisholm High School.

The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 45th out of 428 Oklahoma high schools in 2008-2009 to 169th out of 439 in the current school year, placing it in the middle to lower range compared to other high schools in the state. This declining statewide ranking suggests that the school's performance may have declined relative to other high schools in the area. While the student population at Cimarron High School is predominantly White, the school has seen a slight increase in Hispanic and multi-racial students over the past three school years.

Overall, Cimarron High School's small size, low student-teacher ratio, and higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students set it apart from the nearby high schools. However, the school's generally lower test scores and declining statewide ranking indicate that there may be room for improvement in academic performance, particularly in core subjects. The school's administration and the broader Timberlake community may want to explore ways to support the school and its students to help them reach their full potential.

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.
