Summary

Apache Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Apache, Oklahoma, with an enrollment of 252 students. The school is part of the Boone-Apache school district, which is ranked 272 out of 452 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Apache Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the state and district averages on standardized tests, with only 28% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 25% in Mathematics in 2024-2025, compared to the state averages of 26% in both subjects. This performance has been declining over the years, with the school ranking 363 out of 614 Oklahoma elementary schools in 2024-2025, down from a ranking of 318 out of 957 schools in 2014-2015. The school also faces challenges with high rates of chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.2% in 2024-2025 to 19.0% in 2024-2025, which is significantly higher than the state average.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Freedom Elementary (Lawton), Anadarko East Elementary, and Sterling Elementary, Apache Elementary School generally underperforms, suggesting that the challenges faced by the school may be reflective of broader issues in the region. Additionally, the school's spending per student ($7,801 in 2018-2019) is lower than the state average, which may contribute to its academic challenges, though some nearby schools with higher spending per student also struggle academically, indicating that funding alone is not the sole factor.
