Macomb High School

Summary:

Macomb High School is a small public high school in Macomb, Oklahoma, serving 75 students in grades 9-12. The school has a diverse student population, with a majority of students coming from low-income backgrounds, and its academic performance lags significantly behind nearby schools.

Macomb High School's academic performance is a major concern, with only 19.1% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, 4.8% in Mathematics, 4.8% in Science, and 23.8% in U.S. History. These scores are well below the state averages and the performance of nearby schools like Dale High School, Maud High School, and Bethel High School. Additionally, 77.33% of Macomb High School students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, significantly higher than the surrounding schools, which range from 29.71% to 84.71%.

Despite the school's challenges, it does have some positive attributes, such as a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.3 and higher per-student spending of $13,578, compared to nearby schools like Shawnee High School ($8,583 per student) and Bethel High School ($9,663 per student). However, these factors have not translated into improved academic outcomes, suggesting that other factors, such as teacher quality, curriculum, and student engagement, may be contributing to the school's poor performance. With the availability of higher-performing schools in the surrounding Dale, Maud, and Bethel districts, Macomb High School has an opportunity to learn from its neighbors and implement targeted interventions to improve student outcomes.

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.
