Summary

Perry Junior High School is a public middle school in Perry, Oklahoma, serving grades 7-8 with a total enrollment of 160 students. The school is part of the Perry School District, which is ranked 101 out of 452 districts in Oklahoma and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Perry Junior High School has shown strong academic performance in recent years, with a significant percentage of students proficient or better in OSTP (Oklahoma School Testing Program) assessments for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 25% in ELA, 45% in Math, and 45% in Science, outperforming the state averages in all three subjects. However, the school has a relatively high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 61.25% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, which is significantly higher than the nearby Stillwater Middle School (51.94%) and Morrison Middle School (51.14%).

Despite the school's strong academic performance, Perry Junior High School has experienced fluctuating chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 13.2% to 19.0% in recent years, which are generally higher than the state average. The school has maintained a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 12.2 to 16.1 in the past three school years, which is a positive factor that allows for more individualized attention and support for students. When compared to the nearby Stillwater Middle School and Morrison Middle School, Perry Junior High School performs similarly or better in academic assessments, particularly in Mathematics, but the school's higher percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds and higher chronic absenteeism rates suggest that it may face unique challenges that the other schools do not.
