Summary:
Grove Public School is the sole elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the Grove school district in Shawnee, Oklahoma. With a total enrollment of 536 students, the school has consistently maintained a 4-5 star rating from SchoolDigger, ranking it in the top 5% of elementary schools in the state.
Grove Public School outperforms the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 47% of students were proficient or better in ELA compared to the state average of 26%, and 63% were proficient or better in science compared to the state average of 30%. The school's student-teacher ratio of 16.1 to 1 is also quite favorable, allowing for more individualized attention.
While Grove Public School has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0%, which is below the national average, there is still room for improvement in this area. Additionally, the school serves a more affluent student population, with only 30.6% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which raises questions about equity and ensuring equal opportunities for all students, regardless of socioeconomic background.
