Summary:
The Jay Elementary School is the sole elementary school serving the Jay, Oklahoma area. Despite starting with a low statewide ranking in 2014-2015, the school has since improved to a 2-star rating, indicating progress in its performance. While the school faces socioeconomic challenges with a high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, it has shown relative strengths in mathematics proficiency, outperforming both the local district and the state averages.
In the 2024-2025 school year, Jay Elementary School had a 34% proficiency rate in English Language Arts and a 56% proficiency rate in Mathematics, compared to 22% and 21% respectively for the Jay district, and 26% and 26% for the state of Oklahoma. The school's 3rd-grade proficiency rates were also higher than the district and state in both subjects. However, the school faces attendance challenges, with a 19.0% chronic absenteeism rate in the 2024-2025 school year.
With a per-student spending of $16,503 in 2018-2019, Jay Elementary School appears to have access to significant resources, which may have contributed to its improved performance over time. While the school has made progress, there are still areas for improvement, particularly in addressing attendance and socioeconomic challenges. Continued monitoring and targeted interventions may help the school further enhance its educational outcomes for the students it serves.
