Elementary Schools in Sallisaw

Summary:

The Sallisaw area in Oklahoma is home to two elementary schools: Liberty Elementary School and Eastside Elementary School. Both schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and are part of the Sallisaw school district.

Based on the available data, Eastside Elementary School appears to be the standout school in the area. Eastside Elementary has consistently improved its statewide ranking, moving from 202nd out of 389 schools in 2023-2024 to 170th out of 614 schools in 2024-2025. Additionally, Eastside Elementary outperforms the Sallisaw district and the state of Oklahoma in several key test score metrics, including English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency rates.

Both schools face challenges related to high rates of chronic absenteeism and economic disadvantage among their student populations, with over 78% of students at each school receiving free or reduced-price lunch. However, the data suggests that Eastside Elementary School is providing a stronger academic foundation for its students, despite facing similar demographic and economic challenges as Liberty Elementary School.
