Perkins-Tryon

The Perkins-Tryon school district in Oklahoma serves students from preschool through 12th grade across 4 schools: 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district demonstrates a mix of strong-performing and lower-performing schools, with the Perkins-Tryon High School and Perkins-Tryon Intermediate Elementary School standing out as the top performers in the district.

Perkins-Tryon High School ranks 109 out of 463 Oklahoma high schools and has a 4-star rating, with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 82.2% and test scores that exceed the state average in several subjects. In contrast, the district as a whole struggles with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0%, which may impact student learning and achievement. Additionally, the schools have relatively high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-income families.

The Perkins-Tryon Intermediate Elementary School also stands out, ranking 69 out of 614 Oklahoma elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating. This school outperforms the state average in several test score categories, particularly in Mathematics, where it achieves a 50% proficiency rate compared to the state average of 26%. The variation in spending per student across the district's schools suggests potential differences in resource allocation or funding sources.
