On the state math tests, 36% of Yukon’s students scored proficient, above the Oklahoma average (25%). The grade covers the public school district serving Yukon, from kindergarten through graduation, on state tests and graduation. Each state writes its own tests, so this is the one TownRatings grade compared within Oklahoma, not nationally.
From Oklahoma state tests taken in spring 2022, when 100% of students in the tested grades sat them, and the class of 2023’s four-year graduation rate, as reported to the U.S. Department of Education.
