Summary

Russell Babb Elementary School serves 314 students in 4th and 5th grades in Harrah, Oklahoma. Its 2025–2026 results show stronger proficiency in math and science than in English Language Arts (ELA). The clearest concern is 4th-grade ELA: 12% of students were proficient, compared with 32% in 5th grade.

Math and science are strengths compared with the state and the Harrah district: schoolwide math proficiency was 37%, versus 25% statewide and 26% districtwide; science was 42%, versus 30% and 36%. ELA was 24%, below the state’s 26% and the district’s 25%. Among five nearby schools with comparable 4th-grade results, Russell Babb had the lowest ELA proficiency: 12%, compared with a nearby average of 26%. Fifth-grade results are more encouraging: ELA was 32%, near the nearby average of 33%, while math was 37%, 9 points above the nearby average. The overall ELA figure therefore masks a sharp difference between the two grades.

Results have shifted: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, ELA fell from 31% to 24%, math from 40% to 37%, and science rose from 29% to 42%. SchoolDigger ranks the school 251st of 626 statewide, at the 60th percentile with 3 stars—down from the 68th percentile the previous year, but up from the 30th percentile in 2023–2024. Its student-teacher ratio was 18.4 in 2024–2025, the highest among nearby schools with reported ratios. In that same year, 54% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, close to the nearby comparison group’s average of 56%. One notable subgroup result is SchoolDigger’s Special Education Students ranking: the school reached the 72nd percentile in 2025–2026, up from the 33rd percentile the year before, indicating a sharp rise in its relative standing for serving this group. Subgroup sample sizes were not provided.
