Carl Albert High School

Summary:

Carl Albert High School is a public high school in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, serving 1,112 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Midwest City-Del City school district, which is ranked 260 out of 342 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Overall, Carl Albert High School has a strong performance, ranking 115 out of 431 Oklahoma high schools and receiving a 4-star rating for the 2023-2024 school year. The school's ranking and rating have fluctuated over the years, ranging from a high of 15th in 2016-2017 (5-star rating) to a low of 141st in 2022-2023 (3-star rating). The school generally outperforms its nearby counterparts, Del City High School and Midwest City High School, in terms of statewide ranking, academic performance, and graduation rates.

However, the school faces some challenges, such as lower academic proficiency in certain subject areas, a higher proportion of students from low-income backgrounds, and a relatively high student-teacher ratio. In the 2023-2024 school year, 38.8% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in CCRA/English Language Arts, and 18% were proficient or better in CCRA/Mathematics. The school's spending per student ($9,291 in 2018-2019) is also lower than the state average, which may contribute to these performance challenges. Overall, Carl Albert High School has a strong foundation, but the district-level challenges faced by the Midwest City-Del City school district may be impacting the school's performance.

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.
