Rosa Parks Elementary School

Summary:

Rosa Parks Elementary School is a public elementary school in Tulsa, Oklahoma, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 622 students. The school is part of the Union School District, which is ranked 115 out of 144 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Rosa Parks Elementary consistently underperforms the Union district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, only 30-32% of Rosa Parks students were proficient in ELA, compared to 46-47% for the Union district and 46-51% for the state. The school also has an exceptionally high percentage of students (84.89%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. As a result, Rosa Parks has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-20% of Oklahoma elementary schools, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger for most years.

Despite its low performance, Rosa Parks has not shown significant improvement over the years, remaining among the lowest-ranked schools in the state. This suggests that the school and district may need to implement more effective strategies and interventions to address the persistent challenges facing the school, such as addressing the socioeconomic factors that likely contribute to the academic struggles of its 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.
