Summary:
The three public schools in Drumright serve prekindergarten through grade 12 and enroll 417 students: 217 at Bradley Elementary, 54 at Virgil Cooper Middle, and 146 at Drumright High. In 2025–2026, the schools’ average all-grades proficiency was 19% in ELA and 14% in math, compared with 26% and 25% statewide; the two reported science results averaged 16%, versus 30% statewide. The high school’s U.S. History result was 38%, compared with 41% statewide. The most important area-wide finding is that proficiency is generally below state results, with the largest average gaps in science (14 points) and math (11 points).
Bradley stands out in all-grades math at 25%, matching the state and exceeding Virgil Cooper at 18% and Drumright High at 0%. Bradley also leads the two reported science results, with 23% versus the high school’s 9%. The high school leads ELA at 21%, compared with 18% at the middle school and 17% at Bradley, though that is still 5 points below the state. Bradley’s grade-level results vary: its grade 3 and 4 math and grade 6 ELA results exceed state results, while its grade 5 and 6 math and grade 3 and 5 ELA results fall below. The high school’s 0% math result is the lowest reported all-grades score.
Results mostly declined from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: ELA fell at all three schools, by 2 points at Bradley, 6 at the middle school, and 10 at the high school; math rose 1 point at Bradley but fell 6 at the middle school and 12 at the high school. SchoolDigger ranks Bradley at the 37th percentile and the high school at the 16th percentile for 2025–2026; the middle school’s latest listing is the 59th percentile for 2024–2025. The high school’s 2024–2025 graduation rate was 84%, 6 points above the state, but its chronic absenteeism was 26%, compared with 16% statewide. In 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible rates were similar—67% at Bradley, 69% at the middle school, and 66% at the high school—and student-teacher ratios were 15.4, 11.5, and 17.8, respectively. These schools serve different grade spans, so their all-grades results are not direct comparisons of identical student groups.
