Cashion, OK - District Data

Original Research by School Decision on Cashion

Cashion Public Schools serves students from pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade in Kingfisher County, Oklahoma. The district operates three schools: Cashion Elementary, Cashion Middle School, and Cashion High School. The surrounding housing market reflects a mix of rural and suburban communities. Typical home values in the area fall below the national median, while rents are modest relative to local incomes, making the region generally affordable compared to the country as a whole.

Enrollment in the district has grown in recent years. The student body is predominantly white, with other racial groups each representing a small share. Data on economic disadvantage and special education populations was not available, so a parent should inquire directly about the share of students receiving free or reduced-price meals and the availability of support services for students with disabilities or English learners.

State assessment results for the 2024-25 school year are available for grades three through eight in math, English language arts, and science. Several grade-level results were suppressed for privacy, likely due to small group sizes, so a full picture is incomplete. In the grades where rates were reported, proficiency varied by subject and grade. In math, rates ranged from about two-fifths of third graders proficient to just under one-third of sixth graders. In English language arts, reported rates ranged from roughly two-fifths of eighth graders proficient to about one-fifth of seventh graders. In science, eighth graders posted a proficiency rate near half. Because Oklahoma changed the cut scores for math and ELA tests this year, these results cannot be directly compared to prior years, making it difficult to assess trend. Across all tested subjects and grades, the district’s composite proficiency index places it in the top quartile among Kingfisher County’s districts, meaning that among the small number of peer districts in the county, Cashion performs on the higher end of the range.

The district’s four-year graduation rate was not reported in the available data, so that measure cannot be evaluated here. Chronic absenteeism, however, is notably higher than most neighboring districts. Among county districts, Cashion’s chronic absenteeism rate falls in the bottom quartile, meaning a larger share of students miss substantial school days. This is a soft spot a parent may want to explore further with the school to understand what contributes to it and what supports are in place.

Per-pupil current spending sits in the lower range among county districts, which may be relevant for families comparing resource levels. The district’s financial context includes a bond issue that passed in 2021 with strong voter approval. That bond funded new school buses, classroom technology upgrades, and facility improvements across all three schools. Following the bond, the district expanded its 1:1 technology initiative so that every student in grades three through twelve now has a Chromebook or similar device. This represents a lasting shift in how instruction is delivered.

The district has experienced sustained enrollment growth over the past several years, a change that has prompted conversations about future facility expansion. For prospective residents, this growth signals a community that is attracting new families, but it also raises questions about whether class sizes and resources will keep pace. Those considering a move to the area may want to ask about current class sizes and any plans for additional school buildings.

Overall, Cashion Public Schools offers a full grade span in a growing rural district with per-pupil spending below the county median, academic proficiency that stands on the higher side of nearby districts, a recent technology investment, and a chronic absenteeism rate that deserves attention. A parent would benefit from visiting the schools and speaking with administrators about student support, class sizes, and how the bond-funded improvements have shaped the day-to-day experience.
