Summary:
The city of Chelsea, Oklahoma is home to 3 public schools serving students from elementary through high school: Art Goad Elementary School, Chelsea High School, and Chelsea Middle School. Based on the available data, these schools appear to be underperforming academically compared to state averages, with low proficiency rates in core subjects and high rates of chronic absenteeism.
Across all three schools, test scores are significantly below the state average, with only 11% of students at Art Goad Elementary proficient in English Language Arts and 0% of students at Chelsea High School proficient in Mathematics. Graduation rates at Chelsea High School are also below the state average at 82.2%. Additionally, all three schools have high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 74.27% at Chelsea High School to 84.72% at Art Goad Elementary, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges in the community.
Despite relatively low student-teacher ratios and high per-student spending, the schools in Chelsea have not shown significant improvement over time, with their statewide rankings declining. This suggests that the academic struggles of these schools may require a more comprehensive approach to address the underlying issues and support student success.
