Jenks Middle School

Summary:

Jenks Middle School is a public middle school serving 1,884 students in grades 7-8 in Jenks, Oklahoma, which is part of the Jenks School District. The school consistently outperforms the state average in standardized test scores across all subjects and grade levels, with 48% of 7th and 8th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts compared to the state average of 39-40%, and 39% of 7th graders and 25% of 8th graders proficient or better in Mathematics compared to the state averages of 29% and 25%, respectively.

However, Jenks Middle School's statewide ranking has declined from 45th out of 238 middle schools in 2016-2017 to 92nd out of 189 in 2023-2024, suggesting that other schools in the state may be improving at a faster rate. The school also faces challenges in addressing performance gaps among different student subgroups, with White students ranking 60th out of 257 middle schools in the state, while Asian, African American, Hispanic, and Native American students, as well as students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking much lower.

Compared to nearby schools, Jenks Middle School generally outperforms Glenpool Middle School and Union 6th-7th Grade Center in test scores and student-teacher ratio, but lags behind the higher-performing Jenks West Intermediate Elementary and Jenks East Intermediate Elementary schools, suggesting that the transition from elementary to middle school may be an area of focus for the district.

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.
