High Schools in Butner

There is only one high school located in Butner, Oklahoma - Butner High School. The school serves grades 9-12 and has a relatively small student population of 56 students. While the school's per-student spending is slightly above the state average, its academic performance has been declining over the years, with the school currently ranked 346 out of 431 high schools in Oklahoma and holding a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Butner High School faces several challenges, including low proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts (20% proficient) and Mathematics (6.7% proficient), as well as a below-average 4-year graduation rate of 80.1%. Additionally, a high percentage (73.21%) of the school's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a predominantly low-income student population, which can present unique challenges in terms of academic achievement and resource allocation.

Despite these challenges, the school's small student-teacher ratio of 16:1 could be an asset, as it allows for more personalized attention and support for students. However, to improve the school's standing, the Butner school district and school leadership may need to implement targeted strategies to address the unique needs of the student population, such as providing additional academic support, addressing socioeconomic barriers, and exploring ways to optimize the use of available resources.
