Summary:
The Wellston school district in Oklahoma consists of three schools: Wellston Elementary School, Wellston High School, and Wellston Middle School. The district is ranked 97 out of 452 districts in Oklahoma and is rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.
Wellston High School stands out as the top-performing school in the district, consistently ranking among the best high schools in the state. It has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and strong test scores, with 50% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 30% proficient or better in Mathematics. The school also has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 82.2%. In contrast, Wellston Middle School seems to be the weakest performer, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and significantly lower test scores than the state averages.
The data also reveals some interesting findings about the district. All three schools have a high rate of free/reduced lunch recipients, ranging from 61.83% to 68.46%, suggesting the district may be serving a predominantly low-income student population. Additionally, the chronic absenteeism rate is consistently high at 19.0% across all three schools, which may be impacting student learning and achievement. The district should investigate the underlying causes of this issue and implement strategies to improve attendance.
