Independence Intermediate School

Summary:

Independence Intermediate School is a public middle school located in Yukon, Oklahoma, serving grades 4-6 with a total enrollment of 752 students. The school is part of the Yukon school district.

While Independence Intermediate School generally performs better than the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, it lags behind the Yukon district average in some grade levels. This may be due to the school's significantly higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (71.41%) compared to other schools in the district, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. Additionally, the school's spending per student ($7,148) is lower than the $7,892 spent per student at the nearby Lakeview Intermediate School, which has a lower percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients and higher test scores in several grade levels.

Interestingly, when compared to schools in the Western Heights and Putnam City districts, Independence Intermediate School appears to perform better academically, particularly in Mathematics and Science. However, these districts serve a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. The school's consistent performance over the past three years and its smaller class sizes, with a student-teacher ratio of 19.8, suggest that it is a solid option for families in the Yukon area, but continued focus on addressing socioeconomic factors and aligning with the district's higher performance levels could help the school further improve student outcomes.

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.
