YARBROUGH

Located along Highway 95, just eight miles south of Goodwell, Oklahoma, the Yarbrough School District serves as a cornerstone of learning within the rural remote landscape of the Oklahoma Panhandle, near the broader Guymon area. As an open, traditional public school system, the district delivers a continuous educational path across two operational schools, guiding students seamlessly from Pre-Kindergarten through 12th grade. Families and researchers alike will find a welcoming, close-knit academic environment designed to support children at every stage of their childhood and young adult development.

The district maintains an intimate learning community with a total enrollment of 108 students, fostering a supportive environment where every learner is known by name. Reflecting its regional demographics, the student body includes 63 White students, 42 Hispanic students, and representation from American Indian and multiracial backgrounds. Yarbrough’s operational strengths are highlighted by its impressive staffing model, which features 14.5 full-time equivalent teachers alongside instructional aides and a robust dedicated support staff totaling nearly 54 staff members. This exceptionally low student-to-teacher ratio—roughly seven students per teacher—ensures highly personalized instruction, strong student-educator mentorship, and tailored resources to help every student succeed.
