Summary:
The Choctaw-Nicoma Park school district in Oklahoma is home to 5 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools include Griffith Meridian Elementary, L.W. Westfall Elementary School, Nicoma Park Elementary School, Nicoma Park Intermediate Elementary School, and Choctaw Elementary School.
Among these schools, Choctaw Elementary School stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking among the best elementary schools in the state. In the 2024-2025 school year, 44% of Choctaw Elementary students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 32% for the Choctaw-Nicoma Park district and 26% statewide. In math, 52% of Choctaw Elementary students were proficient or better, again outpacing the district and state averages. L.W. Westfall Elementary School also performs well, ranking in the top 40% of Oklahoma elementary schools and maintaining a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
However, the district as a whole appears to be underperforming compared to the state, with most schools scoring below the Oklahoma average on proficiency rates. Additionally, all 5 schools in the district had a 19.0% chronic absenteeism rate in 2024-2025, which is higher than the state average. The schools with higher free/reduced lunch rates also tended to have lower test scores, suggesting a correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement. Continued analysis and targeted interventions could help address these challenges and improve overall academic performance across the Choctaw-Nicoma Park district.
