Okmulgee High School

Summary:

Okmulgee High School is a public high school in Okmulgee, Oklahoma, serving 331 students in grades 9-12 with a diverse student population that includes 31.12% Native American and 19.64% African American students.

Okmulgee High School faces significant academic challenges, ranking in the bottom quartile of Oklahoma high schools with only 18.1% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, 5.6% in Mathematics, 8.3% in Science, and 22.2% in U.S. History. The school serves a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 87.92% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which is much higher than the nearby schools. However, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.9 suggests that it may have more resources available for individual student support.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Preston High School, which ranks 29 out of 439 Oklahoma high schools, Okmulgee High School's academic performance is significantly lower. The school's diverse student population and higher percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds also set it apart from the nearby schools, which tend to have a higher percentage of White students and lower free and reduced-price lunch rates. Addressing the unique challenges faced by Okmulgee High School will require a comprehensive approach that considers the specific needs of 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.
