Millwood High School

Summary:

Millwood High School is a public high school in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, serving 309 students in grades 9-12. The school has a predominantly African American student population (86.41%) and a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds (34.63% receive free or reduced-price lunch).

Academically, Millwood High School is struggling, ranking 428 out of 439 Oklahoma high schools in the 2022-2023 school year. Only 9.5% of 11th-grade students are proficient or better in English Language Arts, 1.6% in Mathematics, 3.2% in Science, and 15.9% in U.S. History. This is significantly lower than nearby schools like Classen High School Of Advanced Studies, which has proficiency rates of 68.5% in English Language Arts and 38.5% in Mathematics. Millwood High School's student-teacher ratio of 21.3 is also higher than nearby schools, suggesting a potential lack of individual attention for students.

The challenges faced by Millwood High School are multifaceted, with racial disparities, declining academic performance, and socioeconomic factors all playing a role. Compared to other high schools in the Oklahoma City area, such as Douglass High School and Classen High School Of Advanced Studies, Millwood High School is underperforming academically, which suggests that targeted interventions and support may be necessary to improve educational outcomes for its students.

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.
