Across the schools, the student population is predominantly white, ranging from 72.65% to 76.22%, with Native American students making up the next largest racial group. Interestingly, all three schools report the same spending per student of $10,856, suggesting that factors beyond funding, such as curriculum, teaching quality, and school leadership, may be contributing to the performance differences observed between the schools.
