Heritage Elementary School

Q: Is Heritage Elementary School a good school?

Heritage Elementary School ranks 40 th of 389 Oklahoma elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 4 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Heritage Elementary School is a public elementary school in Edmond, Oklahoma, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 822 students. The school consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, earning a 4 or 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Heritage Elementary's academic performance is exceptional, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science significantly higher than the Edmond and Oklahoma state averages. For example, in 2023-2024, 76% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 63% in Edmond and 46% statewide. The school's student-teacher ratio has remained relatively low, ranging from 15.9 to 18 over the past few years, which may contribute to the strong academic performance.

Compared to nearby schools in the Edmond School District, such as Russell Dougherty, Ida Freeman, and Clegern Elementary, Heritage Elementary consistently outperforms in academic proficiency. However, the school's free and reduced-lunch percentage has increased from 10.03% in 2021-2022 to 24.57% in 2023-2024, suggesting a potential shift in the socioeconomic composition of the student body, which may require additional support and resources to maintain the school's high academic standards.

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.
