Freedom Elementary School

Summary:

Freedom Elementary School is a highly-ranked public elementary school in Sapulpa, Oklahoma, serving 456 students in grades PK-5. The school has consistently earned a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and currently ranks 18th out of 276 elementary schools in the state.

Freedom Elementary School stands out for its exceptional academic performance, with significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the Sapulpa district and the state of Oklahoma. For example, in the 2022-2023 school year, 50% of 3rd-grade students, 72% of 4th-grade students, and 68% of 5th-grade students at Freedom Elementary were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to lower scores in the surrounding Sapulpa district and the state. The school also benefits from a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 12.5 to 15.4 over the past three years, compared to nearby schools with ratios between 12.9 and 16.9. Additionally, Freedom Elementary has a lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (48.25%) compared to the surrounding schools, which range from 45.27% to 86.9%.

While Freedom Elementary School's performance is exceptional, the disparities in academic achievement and socioeconomic factors compared to nearby schools, such as Northwest Elementary School, Angus Valley Elementary School, and Jefferson Heights Elementary School, suggest potential equity concerns. Further investigation is needed to understand the factors contributing to Freedom Elementary's success and ensure that all students in the Sapulpa district have access to high-quality education.

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.
