Summary

Western Gateway Elementary School is a public charter school in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, serving 277 students in grades PK-4. The school is part of the Western Gateway (Charter) District, which is ranked 237 out of 452 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Western Gateway Elementary School has relatively low academic performance compared to the state and nearby schools, with only 26% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 21% in Mathematics, the school ranks 30 out of 110 Oklahoma elementary schools for its Hispanic student population, suggesting it may be effectively serving this subgroup. The school also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates and a high percentage of students from low-income families, with 59.88% to 71.84% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch over the past three years.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Mark Twain Elementary School, Western Gateway Elementary generally performs worse academically. However, the nearby John Rex Charter Elementary School, which is also a charter school, has significantly higher proficiency rates in core subjects. Further investigation into Western Gateway's practices and resources could provide insights into how to improve overall student outcomes.
