Summary:
The town of Dover, Oklahoma has only one public high school, Dover High School, serving grades 9-12. With a total enrollment of 61 students, Dover High School is a small, rural school that has seen fluctuating performance in recent years, ranking between 158 and 287 out of 463 Oklahoma high schools.
Dover High School's academic performance is mixed, with some strengths in 11th grade English Language Arts where 42% of students are proficient or better, compared to a 37% state average. However, the school struggles in other areas, such as Mathematics and Science, where proficiency rates are significantly below the state average. The school's 4-year graduation rate of 82.2% is also below the state average. Additionally, Dover High School faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0%, which may contribute to its lower test scores in certain subjects.
Despite these challenges, Dover High School benefits from a low student-teacher ratio of 8.7 to 1, which could allow for more personalized attention and support for students. However, the school's small size may also limit the range of course offerings and extracurricular activities available. With 65.57% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a predominantly low-income student population, which may present additional obstacles in terms of academic achievement and resource allocation.
