Cameron Elementary School

Public Grades PK, KG-8

Summary

Cameron Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Cameron, Oklahoma, with 199 students. The school is part of the Cameron school district, which is ranked 314 out of 452 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Over the past several years, Cameron Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Oklahoma elementary schools, with its highest ranking being 582 out of 957 schools in 2014-2015.

Cameron Elementary faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, which have risen from 4.7% in 2024-2025 to 19.0% in the most recent year, notably higher than the state average of 9.6%. Academically, the school struggles, with very low proficiency rates across all subjects and grade levels compared to the state averages. For example, in 2024-2025, only 5% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 26%, and in math, the proficiency rate was just 11%, again well below the state's 26% average. Additionally, Cameron Elementary has an extremely high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, reaching 87.44% in the most recent year, significantly higher than the surrounding schools, which range from 69.75% to 97.73% free/reduced lunch.

Despite these challenges, Cameron Elementary spends less per student, at $7,275, compared to the nearby schools, which range from $6,934 to $13,323 per student. Addressing the school's high chronic absenteeism, consistently low test scores, and high poverty levels will require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach to support the students and community effectively.
