Summary:
The Midwest City-Del City area is home to three high schools: Midwest City High School, Del City High School, and Carl Albert High School. While the schools share similar graduation rates, there are notable differences in their academic performance and student demographics.
Carl Albert High School stands out as the top-performing school, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and significantly higher test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the other two schools. In contrast, Midwest City High School and Del City High School have lower 1-star ratings and much lower proficiency rates on standardized tests. The disparities in academic achievement may be influenced by the socioeconomic factors, as Midwest City High School and Del City High School have higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a more economically disadvantaged student population.
Despite the differences in academic performance, all three high schools maintain similar four-year graduation rates of around 80%. This indicates that the schools are able to support students in completing their high school education at comparable levels, even with the variations in resources and student demographics. The data presents an opportunity for the Midwest City-Del City district to identify and address the underlying factors contributing to the achievement gap, with the goal of providing more equitable educational opportunities for all students in the area.
