Summary:
The 74145 zip code area has only one middle school, Memorial Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance data raises significant concerns, as it has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Oklahoma middle schools in recent years, with low proficiency rates across all subjects compared to the Tulsa district and the state of Oklahoma.
Memorial Middle School's academic proficiency rates are particularly concerning, with only 9% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and a mere 3% proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 16% and 13% respectively in the Tulsa district, and 26% in both subjects statewide. The school also has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (92.61%) and a chronic absenteeism rate of 19%, which may be contributing factors to the low academic performance.
While the data does not suggest any correlation between the school's performance and its student demographics, the consistently low rankings and significant proficiency gaps indicate that Memorial Middle School is in need of targeted interventions and support to help improve student outcomes. Addressing the resource allocation and attendance challenges may be crucial steps in addressing the persistent academic challenges faced by this school.
