High Schools in Locust Grove

Locust Grove, Oklahoma is home to a single high school, Locust Grove High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has faced some challenges in recent years, with its performance ranking between 140 and 202 out of 431-463 Oklahoma high schools over the past 3 school years and a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Locust Grove High School has seen mixed results. While the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts on the OSTP assessments were slightly above the state average, its performance in Mathematics and U.S. History was below the state average. The school's proficiency rates on the CCRA assessments, which measure college and career readiness, also showed a relatively high rate in English Language Arts but a low rate in Mathematics. This suggests that the school may need to focus on improving its math and social studies instruction to better support student learning and prepare them for postsecondary success.

Socioeconomic factors may also be impacting the school's performance, as 63.57% of its students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0% for the 2024-2025 school year was higher than the state average, which could be a contributing factor to the school's academic performance. Addressing these challenges may be important areas of focus for Locust Grove school district to improve student outcomes.
