Moss High School

Summary:

Moss High School is a small public high school in Holdenville, Oklahoma, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 77. The school's racial makeup is predominantly White (59.74%), with significant representation of Native American (16.88%) and multiracial (15.58%) students.

Academically, Moss High School has struggled compared to surrounding schools. In the 2022-2023 school year, the school's proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts (33.3%), Mathematics (22.2%), and Science (16.7%) were significantly lower than the state averages. This is reflected in the school's statewide ranking, which has fluctuated between 157th and 433rd out of 439 Oklahoma high schools in recent years. However, Moss High School generally performs better than the lowest-ranked schools in the area, such as Sasakwa High School and Weleetka High School, but lags behind higher-performing schools like Allen High School and Seminole High School.

Moss High School has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 46.75% to 54.32% in the past three school years, suggesting a higher proportion of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds compared to some nearby schools. The school's small size and low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.4 to 16.5 over the past three years, could be leveraged as strengths to provide more personalized support and interventions for students. By addressing the underlying factors contributing to the school's declining academic performance and the socioeconomic challenges faced by its student population, Moss High School has the potential to improve its educational outcomes and provide a more enriching learning experience 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.
