Oelrichs High School - 01

Summary:

Oelrichs High School - 01 is a small public high school in Oelrichs, South Dakota, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of just 47. The school is part of the Oelrichs School District 23-3, which is ranked 124th out of 126 school districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Oelrichs High School - 01 has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing high schools in South Dakota over the past decade, ranging from 123rd to 144th out of 137-150 schools. The school's academic performance, as measured by Smarter Balanced Assessments, is significantly below the state average across all subjects and grade levels. In the 2022-2023 school year, only 58.33% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 65.15%, and just 8.33% were proficient in Mathematics, compared to the state average of 37.82%. Additionally, the school has a 100% free and reduced-price lunch rate, indicating that all of its students come from low-socioeconomic status households.

Despite the higher-than-average spending per student of $14,915 in the 2020-2021 school year, the school's academic outcomes remain poor. This raises questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation and the need to evaluate the strategies and programs being implemented to support student learning. The school's unique demographic, with a predominantly Native American student population, also highlights the educational challenges faced by this demographic in the region and the need for targeted support and interventions to address their specific needs.

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.
