Middle Schools in Wilburton

Summary:

Wilburton, Oklahoma is home to a single middle school, Wilburton Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance and characteristics offer a mixed picture, with some areas of strength but also challenges that need to be addressed.

Wilburton Middle School has seen its statewide ranking fluctuate in recent years, ranging from 76 out of 171 schools in 2021-2022 to 100 out of 189 schools in 2023-2024. Its overall rating of 4 out of 5 stars in the 2024-2025 school year suggests the school is performing reasonably well, but there are areas for improvement. The school's academic performance is mixed, with some grade levels exceeding the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics, while others fall below. Additionally, the school faces a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 19%, which could be a contributing factor to its academic challenges.

Socioeconomic factors also play a role, as Wilburton Middle School has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 73.03% in the 2023-2024 school year. The school's per-student spending of $7,915 in the 2018-2019 school year and a student-teacher ratio of 14:1 in 2023-2024 suggest the school may face resource constraints that could impact its ability to provide comprehensive support for its students.
