Wellston

The Wellston school district in Oklahoma consists of three schools: Wellston Elementary School, Wellston High School, and Wellston Middle School. The district serves students from elementary through high school and is located in a community with a predominantly White population.

Among the standout schools in the district, Wellston Elementary School ranks in the top quarter of Oklahoma elementary schools and outperforms the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. Wellston High School also performs well, ranking in the top fifth of Oklahoma high schools, though its mathematics proficiency rate is lower than the state average. The district as a whole appears to be committed to providing quality education, with all three schools earning 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger.

However, the Wellston schools face some challenges, including significant free/reduced lunch rates across all three schools, suggesting a need to address socioeconomic factors that may be impacting student learning. Additionally, the predominantly White student population may indicate a need to ensure equitable access and support for all students, regardless of their racial or ethnic background. Overall, the Wellston school district is performing well, but there are opportunities to further improve student outcomes, particularly in mathematics and for underrepresented student groups.
