Summary

Sweetwater High School is a small high school in Sweetwater, Oklahoma, serving grades 9–12, with 30 students. It reported a 100% graduation rate in 2024–2025, but chronic absenteeism rose to 21% in 2025–2026, compared with 16% statewide and 8% in the Sweetwater district. The most important concern is that Sweetwater’s 2025–2026 results were below the state in all four tested subjects.

Among the five nearby high schools, Sweetwater’s strongest relative subject was mathematics: 17%, third of five, though 8 points below the state and 7 below the nearby-school average. English Language Arts I was its weakest relative to nearby peers: 16%, lowest among the five and 31 points below their average. Science was 12%, second-lowest nearby and 18 points below the state; U.S. History was 26%, tied for second-lowest nearby and 15 points below the state. Compared with its district, Sweetwater nearly matched the 2025–2026 English Language Arts I result (16% versus 17%) but was 7 points lower in mathematics (17% versus 24%).

Results shifted unevenly from the prior year: English Language Arts I fell 15 points, U.S. History fell 13, mathematics rose 2, and science was unchanged. SchoolDigger ranked Sweetwater 346th of 462 schools, in the 25th percentile with 1 star in 2025–2026; its overall percentile had fallen 71 points from 2014–2015. Its 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 5.4:1, the lowest among nearby schools, and 53% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Low Socio Economic Status Students fell from the 96th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 31st in 2025–2026, indicating a sharp drop in its relative measure of how well the school serves that group. Its ranking for White Students also declined sharply, from the 64th to the 13th percentile over those years.
