Summary:

Geary High School is a small public high school in Geary, Oklahoma, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of just 72. While the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the years, it currently ranks 227 out of 431 Oklahoma high schools and is rated 2 out of 5 SchoolDigger stars.

Geary High School has consistently underperformed academically compared to nearby schools, with only 22.2% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in CCRA/English Language Arts and 16.7% proficient or better in CCRA/Mathematics. This is significantly lower than the performance at Okarche High School (46.4% in ELA and 32.1% in Math) and Hydro-Eakly High School (46% in ELA and 16.2% in Math).

Despite the challenges faced by Geary High School, the data indicates that there may be opportunities for improvement. The school's student-teacher ratio of 7.1 in the 2023-2024 school year is relatively low, which could potentially allow for more individualized attention and support for students. However, the school's small size, with only 72 students, may also impact the availability of resources, course offerings, and extracurricular activities. Overall, the analysis of Geary High School reveals a school that is struggling academically and facing significant socioeconomic challenges compared to its nearby counterparts, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the underlying issues and improve student 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.
