Summary:

Drummond Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Drummond, Oklahoma, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 253 students. The school is part of the Drummond School District, which is ranked 12th out of 342 districts in Oklahoma and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Drummond Elementary School consistently outperforms the state average in academic proficiency across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, 84% of 4th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 47%. In 5th-grade Mathematics, 85% of students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 37%. The school has a strong statewide ranking, placing 2nd out of 389 Oklahoma elementary schools in the 2023-2024 school year, with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. This high performance is further supported by the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.7 students per teacher, which is lower than the nearby Enid schools, which have ratios ranging from 15.6 to 17.8 students per teacher.

While Drummond Elementary School has maintained a high level of academic performance, its statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 2nd to 628th out of Oklahoma elementary schools. This suggests that the school's performance is not static and may be influenced by various factors. Compared to the nearby Enid schools, which generally have lower academic performance, higher free and reduced lunch rates, and higher student-teacher ratios, Drummond Elementary School appears to have unique advantages or strategies that contribute to its strong academic outcomes. Further investigation into the school's specific programs, teaching methods, and resource allocation could provide valuable insights into its success.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
