Summary:
The 74454 zip code in Oklahoma is home to two schools: Porter Consolidated Elementary School and Porter Consolidated High School, both part of the Porter Consolidated school district. Based on the available data, these schools are struggling to meet the needs of their students, with consistently low rankings and ratings, significant gaps in academic achievement, and high rates of economic disadvantage among the student populations.
Both the elementary and high school have 1-star ratings from SchoolDigger and rank well below the state average, with Porter Consolidated Elementary School ranked 447 out of 614 Oklahoma elementary schools and Porter Consolidated High School ranked 368 out of 463 Oklahoma high schools. The schools' test scores are significantly below the state averages, with large gaps in proficiency rates across all subject areas and grade levels. For example, only 14% of students at the elementary school were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 26%, and just 3% of high school students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state average of 18%.
The schools also face challenges related to attendance and graduation rates, with both having high chronic absenteeism rates of 19% and the high school having a 4-year graduation rate of 82.2%, which is below the state average. Additionally, the schools serve a population with significant economic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which are 78.11% at the elementary school and 67.72% at the high school. The relatively low spending per student and high student-teacher ratios suggest that the schools may be operating with limited resources, which could be a contributing factor to their performance struggles.
