Frederick

Frederick, Oklahoma, has three public schools serving prekindergarten through grade 12: Frederick Elementary (PK–5), Frederick Middle (6–8), and Frederick High (9–12); together, they enroll 737 students. Their results are uneven, and the clearest concern is Frederick High’s 10% math proficiency in 2025–2026—15 points below the state and 25 points below Frederick Middle.

Frederick Elementary stands out at the top: it led the three schools in all-grade ELA (48%), math (63%), and science (80%), with leads over the next-highest school of 6, 28, and 20 points, respectively. Its scores were also 22 points above the state in ELA, 38 above in math, and 50 above in science. Frederick Middle was strongest in science, at 60%—30 points above the state—and its ELA result of 34% was 8 points above state. Frederick High had 42% ELA and 32% science proficiency; its science result was 2 points above state. Because the schools serve different grade spans, their all-grade figures are school summaries rather than like-for-like comparisons.

Results improved in most subjects from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, but High’s math score fell 16 points, while Elementary’s was unchanged and Middle’s rose 3 points; science rose at all three schools, by 3 to 17 points. SchoolDigger’s latest percentile ranks were 93 for Elementary, 89 for Middle, and 71 for High; all three improved over the prior year. Student-teacher ratios in 2024–2025 ranged from 12.5 at High to 16.1 at Elementary. The schools’ 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible shares were similar: 78% at Middle, 80% at High, and 81% at Elementary. Other indicators offer a different view: High’s chronic absenteeism was 7% in 2025–2026, below the state’s 16%, and its 2024–2025 graduation rate was 90%, compared with 78% statewide.
