Muskogee Hs, Muskogee OK - Test Scores & Data

Original Research by School Decision on Muskogee Hs

Muskogee High School sits in a mid-sized eastern Oklahoma city that functions as an industrial and port hub. The school serves grades nine through twelve, and its enrollment reflects a diverse and largely working-class community. The student body includes a mixture of students who identify as white, two or more races, Black, Hispanic, and American Indian or Alaska Native. The school does not report the share of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, nor does it provide counts for students with disabilities or English learners, so a parent would need to ask the school directly about those support structures.

State testing data for high school grades is not available in the information we have. The proficiency figures that are present cover grade levels from third through eighth, which this school does not serve. Because those results come from younger students at other schools in the district, they are not a meaningful measure of what students experience at Muskogee High School itself. The neighboring comparison, which places this school’s overall proficiency above the midpoint among districts in Muskogee County, draws on those same elementary- and middle-grade scores, so it does not directly reflect high school performance. A family evaluating this school should look for high school–level state assessments or local measures of student achievement.

The school’s graduation rate is not reported in the data we examined. That is a significant gap for any high school, and a parent may want to ask the district directly about four-year graduation outcomes.

The city of Muskogee provides the context. It is an older industrial center with a Georgia-Pacific plant as its largest employer, along with glass, steel, and food processing operations. The population has been declining slowly over the past decade and appears to have stabilized in recent years. Housing values are well below national averages, and rents have risen sharply in the past year, though the typical rent is still low compared with the national median. The built environment is car-dependent, with a historic downtown that houses civic institutions and museums but limited walkable street life. Cultural anchors include Honor Heights Park, an annual Azalea Festival, and several museums.

The district itself has not recently undertaken major publicly reported changes or strategic initiatives that would reshape the high school experience. The school’s website and directory details provide no information on course offerings, Advanced Placement or dual-credit programs, career pathways, or extracurricular activities. Without that information, it is impossible to describe the academic track available to students.

What a family considering Muskogee High School can see is a large comprehensive high school serving a diverse population in a city with a stable industrial base and below-average housing costs. The lack of test results, graduation data, and program details means that many of the core questions about academic rigor and student support cannot be answered from this information alone. A visit to the school, a conversation with current families, and a review of the school’s own materials would be essential next steps.

Graduation rate (ACGR) reflects the federally published Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate for the most recent year available. We refresh this data annually at the close of each academic year in June. The federal source publishes a banded rate (for example, "90-94%") instead of an exact number for cohorts small enough to risk identifying individual students. The state distribution chart, where shown, plots every school in the state with a published rate or band; schools whose rate is federally suppressed are excluded. Where the federal source publishes a band rather than an exact rate, the school is placed within its band using a stable, ID-derived offset, so its position is consistent across visits.
