Kingston High School

Summary:

Kingston High School is a public high school serving 362 students in grades 9-12 in the town of Kingston, Oklahoma, which has a predominantly White and Native American student population.

The school's academic performance has been mixed, with its statewide ranking fluctuating from 37th out of 197 high schools in 2016-2017 to 259th out of 439 high schools in 2022-2023. While the school performs well for special education and homeless students, it ranks much lower for Native American and White students. With over 83% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Kingston High School serves a high-poverty student population. The school's spending per student of $11,133 is higher than the state average, but its academic outcomes, particularly in math and science, lag behind nearby schools like Durant High School.

The significant disparities in performance between student subgroups and the overall decline in the school's statewide ranking suggest that Kingston High School may need to focus on addressing the unique needs and challenges faced by its diverse student population, particularly those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. By understanding the factors contributing to the school's performance and comparing it to neighboring districts like Durant, Calera, and Madill, the school can develop targeted strategies to improve educational outcomes for all students.

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.
