Summary:
The Hilldale school district in Oklahoma consists of three schools: Hilldale Lower Elementary School, Hilldale High School, and Hilldale Middle School. The district serves a predominantly low-income population, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch across all three schools.
Hilldale Middle School stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, ranking 98th out of 369 Oklahoma middle schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its test scores are generally above the district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts. In contrast, Hilldale Lower Elementary School has relatively low proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the district and state averages.
While Hilldale High School has shown improvement in recent years, moving from a 1-star to a 3-star rating, it struggles with Mathematics proficiency, with only 8% of 11th graders scoring proficient or better, compared to 18% statewide. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has dropped from 174th out of 431 high schools in 2023-2024 to 292nd out of 463 in 2024-2025, indicating a potential decline in performance. Across all three schools, the consistently high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0% is a significant challenge that may be impacting student learning and achievement.
