Summary:
The city of Muskogee, Oklahoma is home to 16 schools, including 9 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, 3 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The schools in this area serve a diverse student population and face varying levels of academic performance and resource challenges.
One standout school in Muskogee is Sadler Arts Academy, an elementary/middle school that consistently ranks among the top schools in the state with a 5-star rating. Sadler Arts Academy has significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the Muskogee district and state averages. Another high-performing school is Hilldale High School, which ranks in the top half of Oklahoma high schools and has a 3-star rating with a 80.1% four-year graduation rate, on par with the state average.
However, the data also reveals a wide range in student proficiency rates across Muskogee schools, with some schools like 6th And 7th Grade Academy and Cherokee Elementary having very low proficiency rates of only 11-29% of students meeting standards. Many of the schools also have high percentages of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic disadvantage in the area. Addressing these disparities and investing in the lower-performing schools could lead to meaningful gains for students across the Muskogee district.
