Summary:
The 74560 zip code area has only one elementary school, Pittsburg Elementary School, which serves students in grades Pre-K through 5th. The school has consistently struggled with low academic performance, ranking in the bottom half of Oklahoma elementary schools over the past decade.
Pittsburg Elementary School has a 0 out of 5-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating poor overall performance. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 12% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, and 14% were proficient or better in Mathematics, significantly below the state averages of 26% for both subjects. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19%, which is likely contributing to the low academic outcomes.
The school serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with 88.66% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite spending $12,180 per student, which is above the state average, and having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.6, the school has not been able to translate these resources into improved academic performance. Addressing the challenges faced by Pittsburg Elementary School will likely require targeted interventions and support to meet the specific needs of its student population.
