Carney High School

Summary:

Carney High School is a small public high school in Carney, Oklahoma, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 61. While the school had a strong performance record in the past, ranking 85th out of 424 Oklahoma high schools in 2010-2011, its academic metrics have declined in recent years, with the school now ranking 354th out of 431 high schools statewide and receiving a 1-star rating.

Carney High School faces significant challenges, particularly in the area of academic performance. Only 18.8% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, and just 6.3% were proficient or better in Mathematics, far below the nearby schools, which range from 20.7% to 48.2% proficiency in English Language Arts and 0% to 25% in Mathematics. The school's overall performance on state assessments has also been declining, with 0% proficiency in Mathematics for both 11th-grade students and the school as a whole in the 2020-2021 school year, compared to the state average of 20%. Additionally, the school's four-year graduation rate, while fluctuating in recent years, has been lower than some of the nearby high-performing schools.

One factor that may contribute to Carney High School's academic challenges is the high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 81.97% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, significantly higher than the nearby schools, which range from 45.71% to 69.84%. While this does not directly explain the school's performance, research has shown that students from disadvantaged backgrounds often face additional barriers to academic success, and schools serving these populations may require additional resources and support to address these challenges. The comparison to nearby high-performing schools, such as Cushing High School and Wellston High School, highlights the need for Carney High School to examine its educational practices and resource allocation to improve outcomes for its students.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
