Summary:

Keota High School is a public high school in Keota, Oklahoma, serving 108 students in grades 9-12. The school has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 56.48% White, 5.56% Hispanic, and 33.33% Native American.

Keota High School faces several challenges compared to nearby schools. Its academic performance is relatively low, with only 28% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, 16% in Mathematics, and 4% in Science. The school also has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 83.33% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. As a result, Keota High School has a relatively low statewide ranking, placing 255 out of 439 Oklahoma high schools and receiving a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, nearby schools like Muldrow High School (ranked 64th) and Central High School (ranked 58th) have higher academic performance and rankings.

Despite these challenges, Keota High School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.2, which is lower than the surrounding schools. Additionally, the school's Native American students perform better than its White students, ranking 73rd out of 187 Oklahoma high schools for Native American students. However, the school's overall performance has declined over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 251 out of 424 high schools in 2010-2011 to 255 out of 439 high schools in 2022-2023. To improve, Keota High School may need to examine its instructional practices, resource allocation, and support systems to better serve its diverse student body and close the achievement gap with the surrounding high-performing schools in the Muldrow, Central, and other nearby 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.

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.
