Best Public Schools in Zip Code 73730

The 73730 zip code area is served by two schools - Covington-Douglas Elementary School and Covington-Douglas High School, both part of the Covington-Douglas school district. While the elementary school is a relatively strong performer, ranking 187 out of 646 Oklahoma elementary schools, the high school ranks in the middle of the pack at 191 out of 463 high schools statewide.

Covington-Douglas Elementary School has 156 students and a student-teacher ratio of 11.5, performing above the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science proficiency. The school's 4 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger suggests it is doing a good job of supporting student learning, particularly in the early grades where it excels in 3rd and 4th-grade math and ELA. In contrast, Covington-Douglas High School has 83 students and a higher student-teacher ratio of 13.3, with a 3 out of 5 star rating and a four-year graduation rate of 82.2%, slightly below the state average.

Both schools serve a student population with high rates of economic disadvantage, with over 60% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This factor likely plays a role in the schools' performance and may warrant additional support and resources. The significant disparity in per-student spending between the elementary and high school ($8,565 vs. $16,647) is also an area that merits further investigation to understand the reasons behind this difference and ensure equitable funding across the district.
