Summary:

Southeast Elementary School is a public elementary school in Tulsa, Oklahoma, serving 889 students in grades PK-4. As part of the Jenks School District, which is ranked 155 out of 295 districts in the state, Southeast Elementary consistently outperforms both the district and the state of Oklahoma in academic performance.

Southeast Elementary School stands out for its strong academic results, with over 50% of 3rd and 4th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts and Mathematics, significantly higher than the district and state averages. The school also earns a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks in the top 10-15% of Oklahoma elementary schools, including top rankings for its performance with White and disabled student subgroups. Despite serving a relatively affluent student population, with low free/reduced lunch rates, Southeast Elementary achieves these results with lower per-student spending compared to some nearby schools in the Tulsa and Union districts.

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.

Se elementary is an exemplary elementary school. The principal is amazing and goes above and beyond her call of service to lead the school to greater heights. Wonderful teachers and great staff work diligently for the well rounded growth of the child. Teachers tailor the class study material to cater to each student's unique academic needs, all kids are helped to grow and bloom and nobody is left behind.If your child is an advanced learner, he or she is not felt bored.It is truly a private school experience! Staff and teachers greet you and the child everyday at drop off and pick up..Kids are always happy and smiling says a lot about this school. The parent community is very involved and leave no stone unturned to help the school in every possible way. There is an underlying unified trojan spirit about almost everywhere in the school.Though we could have gotten a similar home for 100k less in neighboring school districts, we are glad to have bought a home in Jenks district. Feel very blessed to send our kids to this school. Close Quote

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.
