Summary

Spiro Middle School is a public middle school serving 227 students in grades 6-8 in Spiro, Oklahoma, which is part of the Spiro District. While the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking and rating over the years, it currently holds a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, ranking 148th out of 369 middle schools in the state.

One key area of concern for Spiro Middle School is its relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 10.3% to 19.0% in recent years, which is higher than the state average and some nearby schools like Sallisaw Middle School (19.0%) and Pocola Middle School (19.0%). Additionally, the school's test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally below the state averages and the scores of many nearby schools, with only 24% of Spiro students proficient or better in ELA and Math in 2024-2025, compared to 26% statewide.

Another notable factor is Spiro Middle School's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 70.79% to 83.87% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average and many of the nearby schools. This suggests the school may be serving a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which could be a contributing factor to its lower academic performance. While the school faces these challenges, nearby middle schools like Sallisaw Middle School, Pocola Middle School, and Pansy Kidd Middle School have outperformed Spiro Middle School on key metrics, providing students in the area with access to higher-performing educational options.
