Summary

Butner High School serves 55 students in grades 9–12 in Cromwell, Oklahoma. Its 2025–2026 proficiency results were below state averages in all four reported subjects, while chronic absenteeism improved sharply. Mathematics is the clearest academic concern: just 6% of students were proficient, compared with 25% statewide and 28% in the Butner district.

U.S. History was the school’s strongest subject relative to nearby schools: 38% were proficient, close to the nearby average of 39%, though below the state’s 41%.

Science was 17%, below the district’s 26%, the state’s 30% and the nearby average of 18%.

Proficiency declined in all four subjects from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, while chronic absenteeism fell from 29% to 8%, a 21-point improvement; the latest rate was also eight points below the state.
