Summary

Sequoyah Elementary School is a public elementary school in Tulsa, Oklahoma, serving 369 students in grades PK-5. 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. Sequoyah Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-20% of Oklahoma elementary schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 593 out of 614 schools.

Sequoyah Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the Tulsa and Oklahoma state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 8% of Sequoyah students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 16% in Tulsa and 26% statewide. In math, only 9% of Sequoyah students were proficient, compared to 13% in Tulsa and 26% statewide. The school also struggles to support its subgroups of students, ranking 97 out of 110 Oklahoma elementary schools for Hispanic students, 62 out of 83 for English Language Learners, and 479 out of 502 for low-socioeconomic status students.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Tulsa district, such as Owen Elementary, Unity Learning Academy, and Felicitas Mendez International School, also struggle academically and have similar low performance and rankings as Sequoyah Elementary. This suggests a broader systemic issue within the Tulsa district that affects the schools in this area. However, Lanier Elementary and Mayo Demonstration Elementary stand out as higher-performing schools, demonstrating that it is possible for schools in the Tulsa district to achieve better academic outcomes.
