Mason High School

Summary:

Mason High School is a small public high school in Mason, Oklahoma, serving 74 students in grades 9-12. The student body is diverse, with 37.84% White, 5.41% Hispanic, 33.78% Native American, and 21.62% two or more races.

Despite its small size, Mason High School faces significant challenges. The school has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing high schools in Oklahoma, with only 4% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, 0% in Mathematics, 0% in Science, and 12% in U.S. History. This low academic performance is particularly concerning, as the school's ranking has dropped from 89th out of 424 schools in 2010-2011 to 436th out of 439 schools in 2022-2023. Additionally, the school has a high poverty rate, with 77.03% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, significantly higher than the state average and nearby schools.

When compared to nearby high schools, Mason High School stands out as the lowest-performing. For example, Beggs High School, located about 20 miles away, has significantly higher proficiency rates in all subject areas. The school's declining enrollment, which has resulted in a small student population, and its high spending per student of $15,252 per student in 2018-2019, raise further questions about the effective use of resources and the need for a comprehensive intervention strategy to address the underlying issues and 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.
