U. S. Grant High School

Summary:

U.S. Grant High School is a public high school located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,698 students. The school has consistently ranked among the lower-performing high schools in the state, with a statewide ranking between 344 and 430 out of 350-439 high schools over the past several years.

U.S. Grant High School has significantly lower academic performance compared to nearby schools. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 7.6% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, and only 2.8% were proficient or better in Mathematics. These percentages are much lower than the nearby Classen High School of Advanced Studies (70.8% in ELA, 39.1% in Math) and Westmoore High School (45.6% in ELA, 24.6% in Math). Additionally, U.S. Grant High School has an extremely high percentage of students (over 96%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

While U.S. Grant High School's performance has been consistently low, the school's 4-year graduation rate of around 80% suggests that there may be opportunities for improvement, particularly if the school can address the underlying socioeconomic and academic challenges facing its student population. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach that addresses the unique needs of the school's student population and the broader educational inequities within the Oklahoma City school district.

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.

It has lockers unlike my school. You can change into different clothes for gym. It has many sports and activities for students to do. but my mom doesnt want me to go to grant because she says that grant is going downhill from teaching students what they are suppose to learn. And that the average grades from students are below ok. please make it better because i really want to go but my mom wont let me until the average goes up. Close Quote

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.
