Best Public Schools in Zip Code 73938

Summary:

The 73938 zip code area is home to two small schools, Forgan Elementary School and Forgan High School, which serve the Forgan school district. While the schools have seen fluctuations in their statewide rankings over the years, they share some common characteristics, including a majority White student population, high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and relatively low student-teacher ratios.

Forgan Elementary School has experienced significant changes in its statewide ranking, going from a high of 12th out of 846 Oklahoma elementary schools in 2010-2011 to 646th out of 957 in 2014-2015, before rebounding to its current 3-star rating. Forgan High School has also seen its ranking change, going from 315th out of 424 Oklahoma high schools in 2010-2011 to 125th out of 449 in 2014-2015, and now ranking 180th out of 439 in the latest 2022-2023 school year. These fluctuations may indicate some instability or inconsistency in the schools' academic performance over time.

Both schools have a significant portion of their student population coming from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, with Forgan Elementary having a 48.44% free/reduced lunch rate and Forgan High School having a 41.46% rate. Additionally, Forgan High School's 11th-grade proficiency rates vary widely, from 0% in Math to 75% in U.S. History, suggesting the need for a closer examination of the school's curriculum, instructional practices, and resource allocation to address these disparities. The difference in per-student spending between the elementary and high school, with the high school spending nearly $8,000 more per student, also warrants further investigation to understand the rationale and potential impact on educational outcomes.
