Summary

Little Axe High School is a public high school in Norman, Oklahoma, serving 325 students in grades 9-12 and part of the Little Axe School District. While the school's graduation rates are on par with the state average, it has consistently underperformed academically compared to nearby schools like Norman High School and Norman North High School.

In the 2024-2025 school year, only 23% of Little Axe High School students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, and just 10% were proficient or better in Mathematics, significantly lower than the state averages of 37% and 18%, respectively. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 12.9% to 20.5% in recent years, which is higher than the state average. However, the school's spending per student is on par with the state and nearby schools, suggesting that the academic underperformance is not primarily due to a lack of funding.

While Little Axe High School's overall performance is concerning, the school's student-teacher ratio is relatively low compared to nearby schools, which could be an advantage in providing more individualized attention to students. Additionally, the school's performance varies among different student subgroups, with Hispanic students performing relatively better than their White and special needs peers. Targeted interventions and support programs focused on improving academic achievement and addressing attendance issues could be beneficial for the school, and learning from the successful practices of high-performing nearby schools could provide valuable insights for improvement.
