Gans High School

Summary:

Gans High School is a public high school located in Gans, Oklahoma, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 107 students. The school is part of the Gans School District, which is ranked 243 out of 295 districts in Oklahoma and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Gans High School stands out for its significantly higher percentage of Native American students (28.04%) compared to nearby schools, which range from 3.81% to 44.09%. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in various subjects, is generally lower than the nearby schools. For example, in the 2022-2023 school year, only 21.7% of Gans High School's 11th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 28-56.1% in the nearby schools like Bokoshe High School and Roland High School. Additionally, Gans High School has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 90.65% in the 2022-2023 school year, significantly higher than the nearby schools, which range from 55.07% to 83.33%.

Gans High School's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the years, from 248 out of 431 Oklahoma high schools in 2009-2010 to 341 out of 439 in 2022-2023, suggesting a concerning trend in the school's academic performance. Furthermore, the school's female students perform significantly better than the male students, ranking 86 out of 353 Oklahoma high schools for female students but 351 out of 355 for male students in the 2022-2023 school year. These challenges, coupled with the school's high poverty rates, suggest that Gans High School faces significant socioeconomic barriers that may be contributing to its lower academic performance.

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.
