Sequoyah Middle School

Summary:

Sequoyah Middle School is a public middle school in Edmond, Oklahoma, serving 982 students in grades 6-8. The school consistently ranks among the top middle schools in the state, with a strong academic performance that exceeds the state and district averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.

Sequoyah Middle School's performance is particularly impressive in Mathematics, where it outperforms the Edmond district average by 1-9 percentage points across grade levels. The school also excels in serving its White and Disabled student subgroups, ranking 24th and 3rd out of Oklahoma middle schools, respectively, in the 2020-2021 school year. However, the school's performance for its Low Socioeconomic Status (SES) student subgroup is relatively weaker, ranking 111th out of 278 Oklahoma middle schools in the same year.

Sequoyah Middle School's higher per-student spending of $8,517 and lower student-teacher ratio of 16.3 in 2023-2024 may contribute to its strong academic performance, compared to nearby schools like Heartland Middle School ($7,154 per student, 16.0 students per teacher) and Summit Middle School ($7,843 per student, 18.5 students per teacher). However, the school's free and reduced-price lunch rate has increased from 21.43% in 2021-2022 to 32.69% in 2023-2024, indicating a potential shift in the school's demographic composition that may present new challenges in the future.

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.
