CROWDER

Located at 400 Bond Street in Crowder, Oklahoma, the Crowder Public School District serves as an essential educational cornerstone for its rural remote community within the broader McAlester area. Operating as an active, traditional public school system across two school facilities, the district offers a continuous educational pathway for students from pre-kindergarten through the twelfth grade. The district fosters a close-knit learning atmosphere, serving a total enrollment of approximately 327 students. Its student population reflects the distinct cultural fabric of the region, highlighted by strong representation among White and American Indian students, creating a welcoming environment where young learners build lasting connections.

Crowder’s learning environment benefits from remarkably small cohort sizes, with individual grade levels typically enrolling between 15 and 30 students. This scale allows educators to deliver tailored, individualized instruction from early childhood through high school graduation. Supporting this student-centered model is a sizable professional workforce comprising over 100 full-time equivalent staff members, including nearly 52 dedicated classroom teachers, instructional aides, and comprehensive support personnel. This favorable staffing context helps ensure that students receive dedicated academic and developmental support at every stage of their schooling.
