Donald P Sloat Junior High School

Summary:

Donald P Sloat Junior High School is a public middle school located in Coweta, Oklahoma, serving grades 7-8 with a total enrollment of 561 students and a diverse student population.

The school has consistently underperformed compared to state and district averages in standardized test scores, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics lower than the state and district averages. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, generally placing in the bottom half of Oklahoma middle schools, and its performance on standardized tests varies significantly among different student subgroups. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which may contribute to the academic challenges it faces.

However, when compared to middle schools in the Bixby and Broken Arrow districts, which are located within 12 miles of the school, the performance of Donald P Sloat Junior High School is generally lower.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
