Best Public Schools in Zip Code 74932

The 74932 zip code area is home to two struggling schools - Cameron Elementary School and Cameron High School, both part of the Cameron school district. These schools serve a population facing significant socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch participation.

Cameron Elementary School has consistently low performance, ranking in the bottom quarter of Oklahoma elementary schools. Its test scores are significantly below state averages across all subjects and grade levels. In contrast, Cameron High School has shown some improvement, moving from the bottom 10% to the bottom 50% of Oklahoma high schools, but its test scores remain well below state averages, particularly in mathematics.

Both schools face challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates and relatively high student-teacher ratios, especially at the elementary level. While Cameron High School spends more per student than Cameron Elementary School, this does not appear to be translating into better academic outcomes, suggesting the need for a more efficient allocation of resources to address the root causes of the schools' underperformance.
