Grove

The Grove school district in Oklahoma serves students from elementary through high school, with 4 schools in the district including 1 elementary school, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools within the district, with Grove Lower Elementary School standing out as a top-ranked elementary school in the state, while Grove Middle School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years.

Grove Lower Elementary School has consistently maintained a strong academic performance, ranking among the top elementary schools in Oklahoma. In 2015-2016, the school was ranked 32nd out of 498 Oklahoma elementary schools and earned a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has also outperformed the Grove and Oklahoma averages in 3rd-grade math and English language arts proficiency. In contrast, Grove Middle School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, from 87th out of 149 Oklahoma middle schools in 2022-2023 to 125th out of 369 in 2024-2025, suggesting the need for further investigation and improvement strategies.

Across the Grove school district, high percentages of students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 67.38% at Grove High School to 74.35% at Grove Lower Elementary School. This suggests the district serves a predominantly low-income population, which may present unique challenges and considerations for academic performance and resource allocation. The data also reveals variations in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios across the schools, which could contribute to the observed differences in academic outcomes.
