Astec Charter School

The Astec Charter School district in Oklahoma consists of three schools: Astec Charter Elementary School, Astec Charter High School, and Astec Charter Middle School. The data shows that these schools are consistently underperforming compared to state averages on key metrics like test scores and graduation rates.

Across all three Astec Charter schools, proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math are significantly lower than the state average. For example, in 2024-2025, only 5% of students at the Astec Charter Elementary School were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 26%. The Astec Charter High School had particularly low math proficiency, with only 2% of 11th graders scoring proficient or better, compared to the state average of 18%. Additionally, the Astec Charter High School had a 4-year graduation rate of 82.2% in 2023-2024, which is lower than the state average.

The Astec Charter schools serve a high-need student population, with all three schools having very high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients, ranging from 95.16% to 96.78%. This suggests that the district may need to address systemic issues, such as resource allocation, student support, and attendance, in order to improve outcomes for its students. The data also indicates a potential imbalance in resource allocation, as the Astec Charter High School spent $9,935 per student in 2018-2019, while the Astec Charter Middle School spent only $4,319 per student.
