Summary:
The Gore Upper Elementary School is the sole middle school located in Gore, Oklahoma, serving students in grades 5-8. While the school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, it has shown some strengths, particularly in science proficiency, which exceeds the state average. However, the school faces challenges related to inconsistent statewide rankings and a high percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
The Gore Upper Elementary School has seen its statewide ranking range from 22nd out of 189 Oklahoma middle schools in 2023-2024 to 202nd out of 407 in 2020-2021, indicating inconsistent performance. In terms of academic proficiency, the school outperformed the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics in 2024-2025, but its science proficiency rate of 64% was significantly higher than the state average of 30%, suggesting a potential area of strength. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0% is an area for improvement.
The Gore Upper Elementary School serves a relatively small student population of 119 students, with a favorable student-teacher ratio of 16:1. However, the school has a high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 72.27%, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which may impact their academic performance and require additional support and resources.
