Forgan High School

Summary:

Forgan High School is a small public high school in Forgan, Oklahoma, serving 41 students in grades 9-12. The school has a predominantly White student population (73.17%) with a significant Hispanic presence (26.83%), which has been gradually increasing in recent years.

Academically, Forgan High School has a mixed performance compared to nearby schools like Turpin High School and Beaver High School. While the school excels in U.S. History, it struggles in Mathematics and lags behind its peers in English Language Arts and Science. Despite having the highest spending per student at $20,251 and a low student-teacher ratio of 8.6, Forgan High School's statewide ranking has declined from 125th out of 449 Oklahoma high schools in 2014-2015 to 180th out of 439 in 2022-2023.

The school serves a more economically disadvantaged population, with 41.46% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, compared to Turpin (46.09%) and Beaver (52.17%). This, along with the demographic shifts in the student population, suggests that Forgan High School may need to adapt its strategies and focus on improving educational outcomes to better serve its students and community.

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.
