Kingfisher High School

Summary:

Kingfisher High School is a public high school serving 386 students in grades 9-12 in Kingfisher, Oklahoma. The school has a diverse student population, with a mix of White, Hispanic, Native American, and multiracial students. Kingfisher High School is known for its strong academic performance, consistently outpacing the state average in proficiency for English Language Arts and Mathematics.

One of the key factors that sets Kingfisher High School apart is its academic excellence. In the 2022-2023 school year, 55.5% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of just 13.3%. In Mathematics, 27.7% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better, again outperforming the state average of 20%. The school's performance is particularly strong among Hispanic and White student subgroups, ranking 24th and 62nd, respectively, out of all Oklahoma high schools. Kingfisher High School has also shown significant improvement in its statewide ranking, jumping from 161st out of 307 high schools in 2020-2021 to 32nd out of 350 in 2021-2022.

While Kingfisher High School's academic achievements are impressive, the school faces some challenges as well. With 38.34% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a significant population of low-socioeconomic status students, yet still manages to outperform many nearby schools, such as Piedmont High School. However, Kingfisher High School's performance has fluctuated over the years, and the school's support for special education students is an area of concern, ranking 118th out of 184 Oklahoma high schools in this subgroup. Overall, Kingfisher High School's strong academic performance, particularly among certain student groups, is a testament to the school's dedication to providing a high-quality education to its diverse student population.

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.
