Summary

Inola Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in the Inola School District, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. With 558 students, Inola Elementary has consistently underperformed the state average on standardized tests, with only 17% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 27% in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 26% in both subjects.

The school faces several challenges, including high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 7.8% to 19.0% in recent years, and a high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, from 49.13% to 62.37%. Additionally, Inola Elementary has a relatively high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 15.6 to 16.4, compared to nearby schools like Roosa Elementary, Westside Elementary, and Claremont Elementary, which have ratios ranging from 9.2 to 14.5.

The school's performance has declined over the past decade, with its ranking and star rating from SchoolDigger dropping from a 2-star rating in 2014-2015 to a 1-star rating in recent years. This trend suggests that the school's challenges may be worsening, and addressing the underlying issues of chronic absenteeism, socioeconomic factors, and student-teacher ratio could be crucial for improving student outcomes at Inola Elementary School.
