McLoud High School

Q: Is McLoud High School a good school?

McLoud High School ranks 243 rd of 439 Oklahoma high schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

McLoud High School is a public high school located in McLoud, Oklahoma, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 509. While the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, it currently holds a 2 out of 5 star rating for the 2022-2023 school year, suggesting some challenges in academic performance.

One of the key differentiators of McLoud High School is its relatively diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Native American (14.34%) and students of two or more races (15.32%) compared to nearby schools. However, the school's test scores, particularly in Mathematics, are lower than the surrounding schools, with only 7.9% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in CCRA/Mathematics, compared to higher scores at Harrah High School (23%) and Bethel High School (29.6%). Additionally, McLoud High School has a significantly higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (57.56%) compared to the nearby schools, which range from 29.71% (Bethel High School) to 54.13% (Harrah High School).

The analysis of McLoud High School's data reveals a school facing some challenges, particularly in academic performance and socioeconomic factors, that may require targeted interventions and strategies to address and improve student outcomes. The school's declining statewide ranking, lower test scores, and higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggest that the school may need to examine its practices and strategies to better align with the performance of its neighboring schools, such as Harrah High School and Bethel High School, and address potential equity issues for 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.
