Catoosa High School

Summary:

Catoosa High School is a public high school serving 556 students in grades 9-12 in Catoosa, Oklahoma, which is part of the Catoosa School District. The school has faced significant academic challenges, with low proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts (28.2% proficient) and Mathematics (11.3% proficient) that are consistently below the state average.

Catoosa High School's four-year graduation rate has been around 75-80% in recent years, slightly below the state average. The school has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 75.18% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite these challenges, Catoosa High School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 15.8 to 17.7 in recent years. However, the school's performance lags behind many of the nearby high-performing schools, such as Owasso High School and Verdigris High School, which have higher academic proficiency rates, graduation rates, and lower percentages of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

Addressing the needs of Catoosa High School's diverse student population, particularly the underperforming subgroups, will be crucial for improving the overall academic outcomes at the school. While the school's spending per student ($11,747 in 2018-2019) is higher than some of the nearby high-performing schools, it has not translated into stronger academic performance. Continued efforts to support the school's students and address the underlying challenges they face will be essential for Catoosa High School to improve its educational outcomes.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

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.
