Summary

Located in Ochelata, Oklahoma, Caney Valley Elementary School serves pre-K through grade 5 and enrolls 312 students. Its 2025–2026 results show a mixed picture: mathematics is above state and district levels, but ELA is below both, and science is below the state. The most important comparison for parents is that Caney’s proficiency results trail nearby-school averages in all three subjects.

Mathematics is the school’s strongest subject against state and district results: 30% of students were proficient, compared with 25% statewide and 21% in the Caney Valley district. ELA proficiency was 17%, below the state’s 26% and the district’s 19%; science was 25%, below the state’s 30% but above the district’s 23%.

The grade-level picture varies: third-grade math was 6 points above the state, while fifth-grade math was 6 points below; ELA was below the state in each tested grade.

Recent results improved in math and science but slipped in ELA: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, math rose from 27% to 30% and science from 23% to 25%, while ELA fell from 20% to 17%.
