Best Public Schools in Forgan, OK

Forgan, Oklahoma, has two schools serving 104 students in all: Forgan Elementary School serves prekindergarten through grade 8, and Forgan High School serves grades 9–12. The clearest shared concern in the 2025–26 results is mathematics: elementary students were 11% proficient and high school students 13%, compared with 25% statewide—gaps of 14 and 12 percentage points, respectively.

Forgan High School stands out for 11th-grade ELA and U.S. History: its 43% proficiency in ELA was 7 points above the state’s 36%, while its 65% in U.S. History was 24 points above the state’s 41%. Its 2024–25 graduation rate was also strong at 91%, versus 78% statewide, a 13-point advantage. The weaker reported results are in math at both schools and in elementary ELA: the elementary school’s 14% ELA proficiency was 12 points below the all-grades state figure of 26%; the high school’s all-grades math result was 12 points below the state. Because the schools serve different grades, their all-grades results are not a grade-matched comparison.

Results changed in different directions over the two reported years: high school ELA rose 8 points to 43%, while its science fell 7 points to 18% and U.S. History fell 10 points to 65%; elementary ELA slipped 1 point to 14%, and math rose 1 point at each school. SchoolDigger’s high-school ranking improved from the 59th percentile in 2022–23 to the 73rd in 2025–26; the elementary school’s supplied ranking history ends in 2014–15, when it was at the 32nd percentile, down from the 99th in 2010–11. In 2024–25, student–teacher ratios were 13.6 at the elementary school and 14 at the high school. Free/reduced lunch eligible measures that year were 59% and 50%, respectively; these figures provide context, not an explanation for results. Chronic absenteeism was low in 2025–26: 4% at the elementary school and 0% at the high school, compared with 16% statewide.
