Summary

Yale High School is a public high school located in Yale, Oklahoma, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 119 students. The school is part of the Yale District, which is ranked 406 out of 452 districts in Oklahoma and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Yale High School has experienced significant fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from a high of 101 out of 439 Oklahoma high schools in 2022-2023 (with a 4-star rating) to a low of 351 out of 463 in 2024-2025 (with a 1-star rating). This volatility suggests inconsistent performance, with periods of relatively strong performance followed by periods of weaker performance. The school's ranking for female students has been consistently lower than the overall school ranking, while the ranking for male students in 2022-2023 was exceptionally high at 11 out of 355 Oklahoma high schools. Yale High School's four-year graduation rates have ranged from 81.1% to 92.9%, with the most recent rate being 82.2% in 2023-2024, which is generally above the state average but still fluctuating.

When compared to nearby high schools, such as Agra High School and Pawnee High School, Yale High School generally performs worse in terms of statewide ranking, test scores, and other key metrics. The school's high rate of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 70.59% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, may be contributing to these challenges. Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio, Yale High School's academic performance remains a concern, suggesting that factors beyond just the student-teacher ratio may be impacting the school's effectiveness.
