Sasakwa High School

Summary:

Sasakwa High School is a small public high school serving grades 9-12 in Sasakwa, Oklahoma, with a total enrollment of just 63 students. The school has a high percentage of Native American students, at 42.86% of the student population. However, Sasakwa High School has consistently underperformed academically compared to the state and nearby schools like Latta High School and Ada High School.

In the 2022-2023 school year, only 6.3% of 11th-grade students at Sasakwa High School were proficient or better in English Language Arts, 0% were proficient in Mathematics, and 0% were proficient in Science. These scores are significantly lower than the state averages and the performance of nearby schools. Additionally, Sasakwa High School has an extremely high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 98.41% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, much higher than the nearby schools. Despite a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.1 students per teacher, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom tier of Oklahoma high schools, with a ranking of 433 out of 439 schools in the 2022-2023 school year.

The academic performance at Sasakwa High School has declined over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 231 out of 307 schools in 2020-2021 to 433 out of 439 schools in 2022-2023. This suggests that the school is struggling to improve student outcomes, even with its high percentage of Native American students and low student-teacher ratio. Addressing the significant challenges faced by Sasakwa High School, including its low academic performance, high poverty rate, and poor overall ranking, will likely require a comprehensive approach to improve student learning and outcomes.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
