Summary

Avant Public School is a small elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the Avant District of Oklahoma, which is ranked 449 out of 452 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite its small class sizes, Avant Public School consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of Oklahoma elementary schools, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science that are significantly below the state averages. The school also has high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 4.7% to 19.0% in recent years, and an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 80.25% to 87.67%. While Avant Public School spends $10,317 per student, which is higher than nearby Collinsville Upper Elementary School and Sperry Elementary School, it is lower than the spending at Wynona Elementary School.

Compared to nearby schools, Avant Public School's academic performance is significantly lower, and its state ranking and SchoolDigger star rating have remained consistently low over the past decade, with no significant improvement observed. These challenges suggest that the school faces significant obstacles in supporting its economically disadvantaged student population, and addressing issues like high chronic absenteeism may be key to improving academic outcomes.
