Taloga

The Taloga school district in Oklahoma consists of two schools: Taloga Elementary School and Taloga High School. While both schools face challenges with higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rates, the data reveals that Taloga High School is a standout performer, ranking 2nd out of 463 Oklahoma high schools and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Taloga High School outperforms the state average in all subject areas, with particularly strong results in English Language Arts (69% proficient or better vs. 37% statewide) and U.S. History (71% proficient or better vs. 42% statewide). The school also boasts an impressive 82.2% four-year graduation rate. In contrast, Taloga Elementary School has a lower statewide ranking, though it has improved from a 0-star to a 5-star rating over the years and still performs better than the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.

The data also reveals significant differences in resource allocation, with Taloga High School spending nearly twice as much per student ($40,808) compared to Taloga Elementary School ($21,306).
