Summary:
The 74651 zip code area is home to two schools - Frontier Elementary School and Frontier High School, both part of the Frontier school district. While Frontier Elementary School demonstrates strong academic performance, with students significantly outperforming the state average in mathematics, Frontier High School struggles, with only a small fraction of 11th-grade students meeting proficiency standards.
Frontier Elementary School has a relatively high student enrollment of 257 students, compared to the smaller Frontier High School with 85 students. The elementary school also has a high percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 71.21%, indicating a relatively low-income student population. In contrast, Frontier High School has significant racial diversity, with 67.06% of students identifying as Native American.
The funding and spending per student also varies significantly between the two schools. Frontier High School spends $26,018 per student, which is significantly higher than the $14,811 spent per student at Frontier Elementary School. However, this higher funding does not seem to translate into improved academic outcomes at the high school level. The stark contrast in academic performance between the elementary and high school suggests a potential disconnect in the educational continuity, highlighting the need for a closer examination of the underlying factors contributing to these differences.
