Vian Elementary School

Summary:

Vian Elementary School is a public elementary school serving around 420 students in grades PK-5 in the town of Vian, Oklahoma. The school has a diverse student population, with a significant Native American representation of 35.24% in the 2022-2023 school year.

Academically, Vian Elementary School has struggled in recent years, ranking in the bottom half of Oklahoma elementary schools on the state's OSTP assessments. In 2020-2021, only 17.65% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, and 19.61% were proficient or better in Mathematics, significantly lower than the state averages. The school's academic performance has declined over the years, dropping from the top quarter of Oklahoma elementary schools in 2017-2018 to the bottom quarter in 2023-2024. Compared to nearby schools like Keota Elementary School, which outperformed Vian Elementary on 3rd-grade OSTP assessments in 2023-2024, Vian faces unique challenges that may require targeted interventions and additional resources.

Vian Elementary School also has a high percentage of students from low-income families, with 72.86% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, significantly higher than the state average. The school's per-student spending of $7,755 is lower than the spending levels of some nearby schools, such as Braggs Elementary ($10,025 per student) and Marble City Public School ($13,208 per student), suggesting that Vian Elementary may have fewer resources available to support student learning. Addressing these challenges will require a comprehensive approach that considers the unique needs of the school's diverse student population and the broader community context.

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.
