Middle Schools in Dewey

Dewey, Oklahoma is home to a single middle school, Dewey Middle School, which serves as the primary educational institution for middle-grade students in the area. With a student enrollment of 269, the school has a diverse student population, with 62.08% White, 18.59% Native American, 8.92% Hispanic, and smaller percentages of other racial groups.

Dewey Middle School's academic performance has been mixed, with its state-wide ranking declining from 171 out of 228 Oklahoma middle schools in 2018-2019 to 231 out of 407 in 2020-2021. However, the school's student-teacher ratio of 15.4 to 1 suggests relatively small class sizes, which can be beneficial for student learning. The school also serves a relatively economically disadvantaged student population, with over 53% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and a relatively low per-student spending of $6,859 (as of 2018-2019).

Overall, Dewey is home to a single middle school that serves a diverse student population, but has faced challenges in terms of academic performance and resource allocation. Parents and community members may want to closely monitor the school's progress and advocate for additional support and resources to ensure the success of all students.
