Summary:
The 74337 zip code area is home to 5 schools in the Chouteau-Mazie school district, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the district faces some challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism and economic disadvantage, a few schools stand out for their strong performance.
Chouteau-Mazie High School is a standout, ranking 66 out of 463 Oklahoma high schools and earning a 4-star rating. The school boasts a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 82.2% and outperforms the state average in several test score categories, including 44% proficiency in 11th grade English Language Arts compared to the state's 37%. In contrast, Chouteau Elementary School has seen its statewide ranking decline over the past several years, suggesting potential issues with curriculum alignment or instructional quality across grade levels.
Another bright spot is Mazie Elementary School, which outperforms the district and state averages in math proficiency and has a lower free/reduced lunch rate compared to the other elementary schools in the district. However, the district as a whole faces equity concerns, with high free/reduced lunch rates across all schools, indicating a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population. Additionally, the significant differences in per-student spending between the high school and elementary schools could suggest imbalances in resource allocation that may be impacting student outcomes.
