Summary

Elmore City Junior High School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in Elmore City, Oklahoma, with a total enrollment of 106 students. The school is part of the Elmore City-Pernell school district, which is ranked 296 out of 452 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Elmore City Junior High School has struggled in recent years, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (18%), Mathematics (19%), and Science (38%) all below the state averages in the 2024-2025 school year. This trend is consistent with the school's historical performance, as it ranked 207 out of 369 Oklahoma middle schools in 2024-2025, down from a high of 40 out of 332 in 2015-2016. The school also faces high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 11.6% to 19.0% in recent years, which can significantly impact student learning and achievement. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 46.22% to 64.15% in recent years, suggesting a relatively low-income student population.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Velma-Alma Middle School, Lindsay Middle School, and Davis Middle School, Elmore City Junior High School generally performs worse academically. Additionally, the school's spending per student ($8,144 in 2018-2019) is lower than the nearby schools, which could be a contributing factor to its academic struggles. However, the school's student-teacher ratio has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 10.2 to 15.4, which is generally lower than the nearby schools, potentially providing more individualized attention to students.
