Summary:
The Sterling school district in Oklahoma serves students from elementary through high school, with two schools in the area - Sterling Elementary School and Sterling High School. While both schools have areas of strength, they also face unique challenges that impact student performance and outcomes.
Sterling Elementary School has consistently ranked in the top half of Oklahoma elementary schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 299 out of 646 schools. The school outperforms the state average in English Language Arts proficiency for 3rd and 4th grade students, but underperforms in Mathematics. However, the school faces a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 19%, which is an area for potential improvement.

The school outperforms the state average in English Language Arts proficiency for 11th grade students, but underperforms in Mathematics and Science. Despite these challenges, Sterling High School maintains a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 82.2%. Both schools face socioeconomic challenges, with high free/reduced lunch rates, which may impact student performance and attendance.
