Summary:
The city of Wilson, Oklahoma is home to three schools: two elementary schools, Wilson Elementary School and Zaneis Public School, as well as one high school, Wilson High School. While the schools serve the same general area, the data reveals stark differences in their academic performance and other key metrics.
Zaneis Public School stands out as the top performer, ranking in the top 20% of Oklahoma elementary schools with a 4-star rating. It boasts significantly higher proficiency rates than the state average across English Language Arts, Math, and Science. In contrast, Wilson Elementary School and Wilson High School lag behind, with rankings in the bottom half of their respective categories and proficiency rates well below state averages.
The data also highlights the economic challenges faced by the Wilson district, with all three schools serving student populations that have very high percentages of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 66.67% to 93.73%. This suggests the district as a whole may be grappling with significant socioeconomic factors that could be impacting student outcomes. Further analysis would be needed to fully understand the drivers behind the performance disparities and develop strategies to improve educational outcomes across the Wilson and Zaneis districts.
