Vian

The Vian school district in Oklahoma consists of three schools: Vian Elementary School, Vian High School, and Vian Middle School. The district as a whole is ranked 143 out of 452 districts in Oklahoma and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Vian High School stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, ranking 64 out of 463 Oklahoma high schools and earning a 4-star rating. The school boasts a 4-year graduation rate of 82.2% and outperforms the state average in several test score categories, including 51% proficiency in 11th grade English Language Arts and 58% proficiency in 11th grade U.S. History. In contrast, Vian Middle School has seen a significant decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 50 out of 228 schools in 2018-2019 to 194 out of 369 schools in 2024-2025.

While Vian Elementary School has some bright spots, such as its 3rd grade test scores, it also struggles in other areas, like 4th grade English Language Arts and Mathematics. The high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients across all three schools, ranging from 80.25% at Vian High School to 86.27% at Vian Middle School, suggest a significant level of economic disadvantage in the Vian community, which likely plays a role in the academic performance of the schools.
