Summary:
The 74016 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Chelsea school district, which is ranked 426 out of 452 districts in Oklahoma and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, none of the schools in this area stand out for strong academic performance, as they all exhibit consistently low proficiency rates in core subjects compared to state averages.
Art Goad Elementary School has very low proficiency rates in English Language Arts (11% vs. 26% state average) and Mathematics (18% vs. 26% state average), as well as a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19%. Chelsea High School fares even worse, with 0% proficient in Mathematics and only 20% proficient in English Language Arts, compared to state averages of 18% and 37% respectively for 11th grade. Its 4-year graduation rate is also low at 82.2%. Chelsea Middle School has single-digit proficiency rates in Mathematics (5% vs. 26% state average) and low rates in English Language Arts (10% vs. 26% state average) across all grades.
The schools in the 74016 zip code area serve a high-needs population, with 74-85% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This, combined with resource constraints as evidenced by below-average spending per student and relatively high student-teacher ratios, likely contributes to the academic challenges faced by these schools. The declining school rankings over time further suggest a concerning trend of worsening performance in this area.
