Middle Schools in Alva

Summary:

With only one middle school located in Alva, Oklahoma, Alva Middle School serves as the sole option for students in grades 6-8 in this area. The school's performance has been a concern, with its statewide ranking dropping significantly from 55th out of 149 Oklahoma middle schools in 2022-2023 to 255th out of 369 in 2024-2025.

Academically, Alva Middle School has struggled, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science falling below the Alva district and Oklahoma state averages. The school's 8th-grade Mathematics proficiency rate was particularly low at just 2% in 2024-2025. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0% in 2024-2025 is a concern, as high rates of chronic absenteeism are often linked to lower academic achievement.

Socioeconomic challenges may also be impacting the school's performance, as over 57% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024. With limited options for middle school education in the Alva area, the community and school district will need to focus on addressing the academic and attendance issues at Alva Middle School to ensure students receive a high-quality education and are prepared for success.
