Kinta High School

Summary:

Kinta High School is a small public high school in Kinta, Oklahoma, serving 52 students in grades 9-12. The school's student population is predominantly Native American (40.38%) and White (36.54%), with a very high percentage (over 92%) of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic challenges.

Academically, Kinta High School has consistently underperformed compared to other schools in the area. In the 2022-2023 school year, the school had 0% proficiency in English Language Arts and Mathematics, and only 6.7% proficiency in Science and 33.3% in U.S. History. These test scores are significantly lower than nearby schools like McCurtain High School and Red Oak High School, which have higher proficiency rates. Despite the school's higher spending per student ($15,157) compared to some nearby schools, such as Porum High School ($12,576) and Stigler High School ($10,136), this higher spending does not seem to translate into better academic outcomes for the students.

Kinta High School's performance has declined over the years, as evidenced by its decreasing statewide ranking and the reduction in the number of SchoolDigger stars it has received, from 2 stars in 2010-2011 to 0 stars in the most recent school year. While the school's small size (12.1 student-teacher ratio) and the economic challenges faced by its student population may be contributing factors, the school's leadership and the Porum school district will need to explore strategies to address the specific needs of the students and improve the school's academic performance.

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.
