Original Research by School Decision on Clegern Es
Clegern Elementary is a pre-K through fifth-grade public school in the Edmond Public Schools district, serving a section of the suburban city of Edmond, located just north of Oklahoma City. It occupies a spot in Edmond’s established central residential fabric, near the historic downtown and the University of Central Oklahoma.
The student body is predominantly white, with the largest minority groups being students of two or more races and Hispanic students. The school enrolls a moderate-sized population for its grade span, though the pre-K attendance number is unusually high relative to the kindergarten through fifth-grade classes, which are all very close in size. This suggests a well-subscribed early childhood program that feeds into a stable elementary enrollment through the upper grades. Data on the share of students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch was not available, which makes it difficult to assess the general economic composition of the school's families from that angle.
On state assessments, Clegern posted strong results. In the tested grades, reading and math proficiency rates were well above the state average, and in science the performance was similarly high. The school’s overall proficiency across the subjects tested placed it among schools in the highest-performing quarter when compared with all public school districts in Oklahoma County, including the large Oklahoma City Public Schools system, which is a meaningful indicator. It is worth noting that Oklahoma adjusted its math and reading assessment cut scores in this testing cycle, a change the state flagged; this means direct comparisons to prior years are not reliable, but the absolute performance in this year’s results is clear.
Edmond itself is a consistently high-achieving district, and Clegern’s numbers are in line with that reputation. The city has grown steadily for decades, with a highly educated population and a median home value and household income well above national medians. The housing market in the immediate area reflects that: home values are high and rents have been rising, though the neighborhood around the school, near the city’s original core, includes a mix of older homes and newer infill. The school sits in a car-dependent suburban layout, though the downtown area and UCO campus provide some walkable destinations nearby.
No recent district-level changes, such as bond issues or boundary adjustments, were reported in available sources, so parents considering Clegern should be aware that the broader district context appears stable, but there is little public information about near-term initiatives. The school also does not report discipline data, staffing ratios, or chronic absenteeism, so a family wanting to dig into school climate or classroom-level supports would need to contact the school directly or speak with current parents. What is measurable is consistent: this is an elementary school with strong academic results in a well-resourced suburban community with a stable enrollment pattern and a deep pre-K program. It fits a family looking for a solid, conventional elementary experience in a high-performing district, though those seeking detailed data on student support or school environment will find those gaps in the public record.
