Wewoka High School

Summary:

Wewoka High School is a public high school in Wewoka, Oklahoma, serving 182 students in grades 9-12. The school has a diverse student population, with over 40% identifying as non-White. However, Wewoka High School has consistently underperformed compared to other high schools in the state, with low academic proficiency rates and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

In the 2022-2023 school year, only 22.9% of 11th-grade students at Wewoka High School were proficient or better in English Language Arts, 8.6% in Mathematics, 5.9% in Science, and 19.4% in U.S. History. These scores are significantly lower than the state averages and the nearby schools, such as Maud High School, Strother High School, and Academy of Seminole Charter High School. Wewoka High School's statewide ranking has also declined over the years, dropping from 195 out of 251 Oklahoma high schools in 2015-2016 to 380 out of 439 in 2022-2023.

The school's high poverty rate, with over 76% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, is accompanied by a relatively low per-student spending of $13,064 in the 2018-2019 school year. This suggests that the school may be underfunded and lacking the resources to adequately support its economically disadvantaged student population. The significant gap in educational opportunities and outcomes between Wewoka High School and its surrounding Maud, Strother, and Academy of Seminole districts highlights the need for targeted interventions and additional resources to improve the educational experience for the students of Wewoka High 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.
