Inola High School

Summary:

Inola High School is a public high school located in Inola, Oklahoma, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 442 students. The school is part of the Inola School District, which is ranked 262 out of 342 districts in Oklahoma and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Inola High School has struggled in recent years, with low proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 23.5% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in ELA, and only 9.2% were proficient or better in Mathematics, significantly lower than the state averages. The school's graduation rates have also been inconsistent, ranging from 79.7% to 95.5% for the four-year graduation rate. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 42.08% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

When compared to nearby high schools, Broken Arrow High School and Verdigris High School have significantly higher proficiency rates in ELA and Mathematics for 11th-grade students. Inola High School's performance is also particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic and Native American students, who have struggled academically compared to their peers. The school's declining performance over the years, as evidenced by its decreasing statewide ranking and star rating, suggests a need for a comprehensive review of the school's curriculum, instructional practices, and support systems to address these challenges.

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.
