Summary:
The Heavener school district in Oklahoma consists of two schools - Heavener Elementary School and Heavener High School. Both schools have faced academic challenges, with declining statewide rankings and inconsistent performance ratings.
Heavener Elementary School has seen its statewide ranking drop from 384 out of 406 Oklahoma elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 393 out of 614 in 2024-2025. Its SchoolDigger rating has fluctuated between 0 and 2 stars out of 5. Heavener High School also has a relatively low statewide ranking, placing 283 out of 463 Oklahoma high schools in 2024-2025, with a 2-star SchoolDigger rating.
Both schools struggle with low proficiency rates in core subjects, particularly in Math and Science, as well as high rates of chronic absenteeism at 19% for the 2024-2025 school year. Additionally, the schools serve a high percentage of students from low-income families, with 78.22% of Heavener Elementary and 72.12% of Heavener High students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite these challenges, the schools maintain relatively small student-teacher ratios, which could be an asset if leveraged effectively to support student success.
