Caddo

The Caddo district in Oklahoma has two schools - Caddo Elementary School and Caddo High School. While Caddo High School has consistently outperformed the district and state averages on academic metrics, Caddo Elementary School has seen a decline in its performance over time.

Caddo High School stands out as the stronger school, ranking as high as 4 out of 5 stars on the statewide SchoolDigger rankings. It has higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to the district and state averages. The school also has a respectable 82.2% four-year graduation rate. In contrast, Caddo Elementary School has lower proficiency rates across most subject areas and grade levels, and its statewide ranking has dropped significantly in recent years.

Both schools face challenges, such as high rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch and chronic absenteeism. Additionally, there appears to be a disparity in resource allocation, with Caddo High School spending more per student and having a lower student-teacher ratio compared to Caddo Elementary School. The Caddo district may need to closely examine the performance and resource distribution at Caddo Elementary School to address these issues and ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students.
