Summary

Medford High School serves 84 students in grades 9–12 in the small north-central Oklahoma community of Medford. Its academic results are mixed: English Language Arts I, Science and U.S. History are above the state average, but Mathematics is a clear concern. In 2025–2026, just 7% of students were proficient in Mathematics, compared with 25% statewide and 39% in the Medford district; the result was also below all three nearby schools. This is the school’s most important academic concern.

English Language Arts I is a standout: 51% of students were proficient, 25 points above the state and higher than Kremlin-Hillsdale High School, Deer Creek-Lamont High School and Pond Creek-Hunter High School. Science was 40%, 10 points above the state and the highest among those nearby schools, though 25 points below the district. U.S. History was 56%, 15 points above the state and equal to the district, but just below the nearby-school average. Graduation and attendance are also bright spots: the 2024–2025 graduation rate was 100%, 22 points above the state, and chronic absenteeism in 2025–2026 was 3%, compared with 16% statewide.

Results have declined in the latest year: Mathematics fell 27 points, while English Language Arts I, Science and U.S. History fell 13, 19 and 11 points, respectively. SchoolDigger ranks the school 92nd of 462 statewide, at the 80th percentile with 4 stars; its percentile was 98 the previous year. The student-teacher ratio was 8.7 in 2024–2025, below the nearby-school average of 11.2. Also in 2024–2025, 39% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with a nearby-school average of 46%. These figures offer context, not an explanation for academic results; small enrollment can also make year-to-year scores more volatile.
