Choctaw County High School has shown strong graduation rates, with a 4-year graduation rate of 89.4% in the 2022-2023 school year, which is higher than the state average. The school has also performed well on state assessments, with several subject areas exceeding the state average, such as 7th grade Math, 8th grade Science, and U.S. History I.
