Pryor High School

Summary:

Pryor High School is a public high school located in Pryor, Oklahoma, serving approximately 800 students in grades 9-12. The school has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup that includes 43.75% White, 26.62% Native American, 19.88% two or more races, 8.88% Hispanic, 0.5% African American, and 0.38% Asian.

Academically, Pryor High School has shown mixed performance in recent years. While the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and U.S. History are generally higher than the state averages, they lag behind some of the nearby high-performing schools like Adair High School. The school's performance has also fluctuated over the years, ranking as high as 80th out of 307 Oklahoma high schools in 2020-2021 and as low as 191st out of 439 in 2022-2023. Pryor High School's diverse student population, with a significant Native American and multi-racial representation, may present both opportunities and challenges for the school in meeting the needs of its varied student body.

One area of concern for Pryor High School is the growing percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which has increased from 33.72% in 2021-2022 to 47.5% in 2022-2023. This suggests a growing population of economically disadvantaged students, which can have a significant impact on academic performance. However, the school does have a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 12.4 in 2020-2021 to 13.2 in 2022-2023, which is lower than the nearby schools of Chelsea High School and Claremore High School.

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.
