Liberty High School

Summary:

Liberty High School is a small public high school located in Mounds, Oklahoma, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 156. The school has a diverse student body, with a racial makeup that is predominantly White (51.92%), with significant Native American (23.08%) and Hispanic (19.23%) representation.

Despite its small size, Liberty High School faces significant academic challenges. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Oklahoma high schools, with a ranking of 406 out of 439 schools in the 2022-2023 school year. Its academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates in core subjects, is significantly lower than the state and nearby schools, such as Union High School and Jenks High School. For example, in the 2022-2023 school year, only 14.3% of 11th-grade students at Liberty High School were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 30.7% at Union High School and 58.7% at Jenks High School.

One potential contributing factor to Liberty High School's academic challenges is the high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 58.33% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year. This is significantly higher than the nearby schools, such as Bixby High School (20.69%) and Jenks High School (30.08%). However, the school's low student-teacher ratio of 13.8 in the 2022-2023 school year could be an asset in addressing the academic needs of the students, if the school can implement targeted interventions and support.

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.
