Geronimo Elementary School's performance has been inconsistent, with its statewide ranking fluctuating from 47th out of 389 Oklahoma elementary schools in 2023-2024 (4-star rating) to 335th out of 614 in 2024-2025 (2-star rating). The school's test scores are generally below the state average, except for 6th grade math where it outperformed the state. With a high percentage of students (73.33%) qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a predominantly low-income student population, which may present unique challenges and resource needs.
Per-student spending at Geronimo Elementary was $8,535 in the 2018-2019 school year, which is relatively low and could be a factor in the school's academic performance. The student-teacher ratio at the school is 18.9 for the 2023-2024 school year, and the school has a chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0% for the 2024-2025 school year, both of which may also impact the school's overall effectiveness.
