Sapulpa Middle School

Summary:

Sapulpa Middle School is a public middle school serving 487 students in grades 6-7 in Sapulpa, Oklahoma, which is part of the Sapulpa School District. The school's student population is predominantly White (53.18%), with significant Native American (13.96%) and two or more races (18.89%) representation.

Academically, Sapulpa Middle School consistently underperforms the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, with rates ranging from 18% to 25% in 2022-2023, compared to the state averages of 21% to 26%. This is reflected in the school's low statewide ranking, which has been in the bottom third of Clyde Boyd Middle School and Jenks Middle School, which demonstrate stronger academic performance. Additionally, Sapulpa Middle School has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds (60.57%), and its per-student spending of $7,791 in 2018-2019 is lower than nearby schools.

Despite these challenges, Sapulpa Middle School's diverse student population could be an asset if the school is able to effectively support and engage these student groups. The school's relatively high student-teacher ratio of 18.6 may also impact its ability to provide individualized attention and support. To improve student outcomes, Sapulpa Middle School will need to address its academic underperformance through targeted interventions and ensure equitable access to educational resources, while learning from the successes of nearby schools like Berryhill Middle School.

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.
