Best Public Schools in Stillwater, OK


Summary:

The city of Stillwater, Oklahoma is home to 9 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. The schools in this district generally perform above the state average, with a few standout elementary schools leading the way. Westwood Elementary School, Sangre Ridge Elementary School, and Richmond Elementary School consistently rank among the top elementary schools in the state, with excellent test scores and relatively low free/reduced lunch rates. In contrast, Highland Park Elementary and Will Rogers Elementary struggle, with test scores well below the district and state averages and higher poverty rates.

The data suggests that socioeconomic status, as measured by free/reduced lunch rates, is a key factor in academic performance across the Stillwater school district. The top-performing elementary schools have significantly lower poverty rates, while the lower-performing schools have the highest free/reduced lunch percentages. Spending per student and student-teacher ratios do not appear to be the primary drivers of these disparities, indicating that other factors, such as specific programs and teaching practices, may play a more significant role.

Overall, the Stillwater school district offers a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools, with the top elementary schools standing out as exceptional. These standout schools, like Westwood Elementary, Sangre Ridge Elementary, and Richmond Elementary, could serve as models for improving outcomes at the lower-performing schools and reducing the achievement gap within the district.
