Elmore City-Pernell High School

Summary:

Elmore City-Pernell High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Elmore City, Oklahoma, with a total enrollment of 176 students. The school has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 71.02% White, 16.48% Native American, 8.52% two or more races, 3.41% Hispanic, and 0.57% African American.

Elmore City-Pernell High School has faced academic challenges in recent years, with its statewide ranking fluctuating from 78 out of 307 schools in 2020-2021 to 303 out of 350 schools in 2021-2022, and most recently ranking 281 out of 439 Oklahoma high schools in 2022-2023. The school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with female students and white students performing relatively worse than their male and non-white counterparts. For example, in 2022-2023, the school ranked 257 out of 353 Oklahoma high schools for female students and 253 out of 350 for white students. Additionally, the school's test scores in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and U.S. History have been mixed, with proficiency rates ranging from 11.9% to 38.1%.

When compared to nearby high schools, such as Pauls Valley High School, Elmore City-Pernell High School generally performs worse in terms of academic rankings and test scores. This trend is concerning and may be influenced by the school's relatively high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with nearly 49% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year. Addressing these challenges will require a comprehensive approach that considers the school's unique demographic and socioeconomic factors, as well as targeted interventions and support for struggling students and subgroups.

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.
