Summary

Hamilton Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Tulsa, Oklahoma, with 297 students. The school is part of the Tulsa school district, which is ranked 387 out of 452 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, Hamilton Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom tier of Oklahoma elementary schools, ranking 587 out of 614 in the 2024-2025 school year and 949 out of 957 in the 2014-2015 school year.

Some key factors that differentiate Hamilton Elementary include extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 19% to 40.8% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the Tulsa district average of 19% and the state average. Additionally, Hamilton Elementary students perform poorly on state assessments, with only 10% proficient or better in English Language Arts and 6% proficient in math, compared to 16% and 13% in Tulsa, and 26% statewide. The school also has a very high percentage of students from low socioeconomic status backgrounds, ranking in the bottom 10% of Oklahoma elementary schools for this metric.

Interestingly, the nearby Springdale Elementary, Felicitas Mendez International, and Sequoyah Elementary schools also perform poorly on state assessments and have high rates of poverty and chronic absenteeism, suggesting that the challenges facing Hamilton Elementary are not unique, but rather indicative of broader systemic issues within the Tulsa school district. Despite the relatively high per-student spending at Hamilton Elementary, the school's academic outcomes remain very poor, raising questions about the effective allocation of resources and the need for a more comprehensive approach to improving educational outcomes.
