Summary:
The city of Eufaula, Oklahoma is home to four schools, including two elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. The schools in Eufaula serve a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 73.88% at Eufaula Middle School to 90.57% at Stidham Public School.
Eufaula Middle School stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, ranking 83rd out of 369 Oklahoma middle schools in the 2024-2025 school year and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's strong test scores, particularly in mathematics, where 33% of students scored proficient or better, are a bright spot in the district. In contrast, the other schools in Eufaula generally perform below the state average on standardized tests, with Eufaula High School's 11th-grade Math proficiency rate at just 14%.
Across all four schools in Eufaula, the chronic absenteeism rate is 19%, which is higher than the state average. This issue may be a contributing factor to the relatively low academic performance observed in the district. Additionally, the variation in spending per student, ranging from $8,093 at Eufaula Elementary School to $10,710 at Eufaula High School, suggests the need for the Eufaula and Stidham school districts to examine their resource allocation and ensure equitable funding to support the needs of all students.
