Waukomis

The Waukomis school district in Oklahoma consists of two schools: Waukomis Elementary School and Waukomis High School. While both schools are rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, the high school stands out as the stronger performer, with a higher statewide ranking and consistent improvement over the past few years.

Waukomis High School ranks 203 out of 439 Oklahoma high schools, compared to Waukomis Elementary School's ranking of 428 out of 498 Oklahoma elementary schools. The high school has shown steady progress, moving from 51st out of 350 Oklahoma high schools in 2021-2022 to 57th out of 307 in 2020-2021. Academically, the high school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (35%) and U.S. History (55%) are relatively strong, but its performance in Mathematics (15%) and Science (10%) could be an area for improvement.

Both schools serve a predominantly white student population, with Waukomis Elementary School having a slightly more diverse racial makeup. Socioeconomic factors also play a role, as a high percentage of students at both schools (72.83% at the elementary school and 55.96% at the high school) receive free or reduced-price lunch. The higher spending per student at the high school ($11,151) compared to the elementary school ($8,390) suggests a focus on supporting the high school's educational programs and resources. Overall, the Waukomis school district faces both strengths and challenges in providing quality education to its students.
