Middle Schools in Little Axe

There is only one middle school located in the Little Axe area of Oklahoma - Little Axe Middle School. This school serves students in grades 6-8 and has a diverse student population, with over 50% of students identifying as White, 15% as Hispanic, 11% as Native American, and 19% as two or more races. However, the school has faced academic challenges, with only 18% of 7th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, slightly below the state average.

Despite its diversity, Little Axe Middle School has had a relatively low ranking among Oklahoma middle schools in recent years, ranking 133 out of 171 in 2021-2022 and 287 out of 407 in 2020-2021, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. This may be due in part to the high percentage of students (69.14%) who receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

While the school's spending per student of $8,190 in 2018-2019 is not exceptionally high or low, and its student-teacher ratio of 12.8 to 1 is relatively low, the data suggests that Little Axe may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve educational outcomes for its diverse and economically disadvantaged student body.
