Summary

Cornelsen Elementary School is a public elementary school in Fairview, Oklahoma, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 375 students. The school consistently performs above the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, particularly in 3rd grade where 50% of students were proficient or better, significantly higher than the state averages.

Despite having a relatively high percentage of students from low-income backgrounds, with 57.07% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Cornelsen Elementary School has been able to support these students effectively, ranking 93 out of 506 Oklahoma elementary schools for this subgroup in the 2020-2021 school year. However, the school has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 5.0% in 2024-2025 to 19.0% in 2024-2025, an area the school should focus on improving.

Compared to nearby schools like Canton Elementary and Okeene Elementary, Cornelsen Elementary School generally outperforms them in academic proficiency, particularly in ELA and Mathematics. However, some of the nearby schools have lower student-teacher ratios, which may contribute to their academic performance.
