Original Research by School Decision on Le Monde International (charter)
Le Monde International Charter is a single-school district in Cleveland County, Oklahoma, serving students from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. Because it serves only elementary and middle grades, the district does not report a graduation rate, and its academic picture is drawn from state assessments given at those grade levels. The school operates as a public charter with a language-immersion focus, offering continuous pathways in French and Spanish from the earliest grades through middle school. This is a distinctive academic model in the region, and families drawn to immersion education will find here a program that has grown deliberately over time.
State testing data from the most recent year shows a mixed performance pattern across grades and subjects. In math, results ranged widely by grade level: third and fourth graders posted proficiency rates that, in the context of the county comparison, placed the district near the middle of the pack among Cleveland County's districts. Fifth and sixth grade math results were suppressed from public reporting, so no conclusion is possible for those grades. Seventh grade math proficiency was lower, and eighth grade math was markedly low, with only a very small share of students reaching proficiency. In English language arts, third grade results were also low, and results for fourth, fifth, and sixth grades were suppressed. Seventh and eighth grade ELA results were below the point where half of students are proficient. Science results for fifth and eighth grades were suppressed. A parent considering this school should understand that the available data shows a pattern where early elementary math is the strongest area, while proficiency declines in the upper middle grades, especially in math. The suppression of multiple grade-level results means a full picture is not possible from public data alone, and families may want to ask the school directly about academic progress in those grades.
On the comparison metric, Le Monde International's overall proficiency index across all tested subjects and grades sits above the midpoint among Cleveland County's districts. The chronic absenteeism rate is in the top quartile for the county, meaning it is one of the lower rates among its peers. Per-pupil current spending falls in the lower range among the county's districts, which is a financial constraint worth noting. The district's total enrollment is small for a K-8 system, and the student body is predominantly white, with a substantial Hispanic minority and a smaller proportion of students who identify as two or more races. Data on the share of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and on students with disabilities or English learner status, was not available in the state data.
The district's history shows it was built from the mission of a former French immersion program that was closed at a local elementary school, and it has since expanded to offer full PreK-8 immersion. Publicly reported information indicates that enrollment grew sharply between the recent school years, reflecting rising demand, which is a meaningful change for a small charter. This growth means the school's scale and community profile are shifting, and families should consider whether the current enrollment size and growth trajectory match their expectations. Because Le Monde International is a single-school district with no high school, students who remain through eighth grade will need to transition to a different school for ninth grade, so families should plan for that transition early. The school's immersion model is the central feature of its identity, and for families who want a bilingual education in French or Spanish beginning in pre-kindergarten, this is the primary option in the area. For those whose priority is high test scores across all grades, the state assessment data raises questions that warrant a direct conversation with the school administration.
