Stilwell High School

Summary:

Stilwell High School is a public high school in Stilwell, Oklahoma, serving 640 students in grades 9-12. The school has a diverse student population, with a majority of Native American students (59.22%) and significant percentages of White (12.34%) and Hispanic (15.62%) students. However, Stilwell High School has consistently underperformed compared to other Oklahoma high schools in academic achievement.

In the 2022-2023 school year, only 18.5% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, 3.1% in Mathematics, 10.3% in Science, and 21.4% in U.S. History. These scores are significantly lower than the state averages, indicating a need for improvement in academic outcomes. Additionally, Stilwell High School has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 80.62% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which is higher than nearby schools like Keys High School (59.14%) and Westville High School (73.12%).

Stilwell High School has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Oklahoma high schools, with a ranking of 394 out of 439 schools in the 2022-2023 school year and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. This low ranking and rating indicate that the school is underperforming compared to its peers in the state, despite its unique racial composition and the challenges faced by its economically disadvantaged student population. The school's declining academic performance and lower rankings compared to nearby schools, such as Keys High School, suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to improve educational outcomes for Stilwell High School 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.
