Summary:
The city of Glenpool, Oklahoma is home to 5 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The schools in this district serve a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients across all schools, ranging from 59.05% at Glenpool High School to 72.3% at Glenpool Lower Elementary School.
The performance of the Glenpool schools has been mixed, with some schools showing improvements in their statewide rankings while others have declined. Glenpool Elementary School has seen fluctuations in its ranking, going from 175th out of 614 Oklahoma elementary schools in 2024-2025 to 234th out of 389 in 2023-2024, but its test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics are generally above the Glenpool district and Oklahoma state averages, particularly in 3rd and 4th grades. In contrast, Glenpool High School has maintained a consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, with test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science generally lower than the district and state averages.
A concerning issue across the Glenpool schools is the consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, which stood at 19% in 2024-2025 for all schools in the district. This attendance issue may be impacting student learning and achievement, and addressing it could be a priority for the district. Additionally, the data suggests disparities in test scores between the elementary, middle, and high school levels, with the high school generally underperforming compared to the state and district averages, indicating a need for targeted interventions and support at the secondary level.
