Dover High School

Summary:

Dover High School is a small public high school in Dover, Oklahoma, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of just 61 students. While the school has a relatively low ranking of 158 out of 431 Oklahoma high schools for the 2023-2024 school year, it stands out for its unique characteristics compared to nearby schools.

One of Dover High School's key strengths is its very low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 8.7 to 11.5 over the past few years, significantly lower than the nearby schools. However, the school also has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 65.52% to 71.15%, higher than the surrounding schools. Dover High School's test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics for 11th-grade students are generally lower than the nearby schools, such as Cashion High School and Kingfisher High School. Additionally, the school's four-year graduation rates have fluctuated, ranging from 63.6% to 81.8%, lower than the 80.1% rate reported for schools like Crescent High School, Cashion High School, Okarche High School, Lomega High School, Kingfisher High School, and Hennessey High School.

Despite these challenges, Dover High School has shown some improvement over time, moving from a ranking of 330 out of 431 Oklahoma high schools in 2009-2010 to 158 out of 431 in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school's ranking for low socioeconomic status students is relatively high, at 113 out of 380 Oklahoma high schools for the 2022-2023 school year, suggesting that the school may be providing effective support and resources for its economically disadvantaged students.

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.
