Summary

Arbor Grove Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, with an enrollment of 533 students. The school is part of the Putnam City School District, which is ranked 333 out of 452 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Arbor Grove Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the Putnam City district and the state of Oklahoma in standardized test scores across all grades and subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 22% of Arbor Grove students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 19% for Putnam City and 26% for the state. In math, Arbor Grove had 25% proficiency compared to 17% for Putnam City and 26% for the state. Additionally, Arbor Grove has very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 19% to 35.7% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

While Arbor Grove's student-teacher ratio is relatively low, ranging from 13.2 to 13.8 in recent years, this does not appear to be enough to overcome the school's other challenges. Arbor Grove's performance is generally lower than the nearby Rollingwood Elementary and Central Elementary schools in the Putnam City district, but it outperforms some other nearby schools in the Oklahoma City district, such as Monroe Elementary and Buchanan Elementary, which have even lower test scores and higher rates of poverty.

The school seems to not want to share my child's school records even when requested multiple times. As for disciplinary records, they refuse to release them. Even contacting Fred Rhodes the Putnam School superintendent seems to do no good either. I feel there must be something else happening at this school that they do not want publically known. My child has complained of being grabbed by teachers and administrators at this school but seems they refuse to release any information as far as dicipline is taken with students at this school.
