Summary

Robertson Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Tulsa, Oklahoma, with an enrollment of 235 students. The school faces significant challenges, including consistently underperforming on standardized tests compared to the Tulsa and Oklahoma state averages, and very high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 34.9% to 40.8% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average of 19%.

Robertson Elementary has a very high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 91.49% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, compared to the state average of around 60%. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of Oklahoma elementary schools, with a ranking of 536 out of 614 schools in 2024-2025, and has only received 1 or 2 stars out of 5 from Tulsa school district in recent years. Interestingly, other nearby schools, such as McClure Elementary, Marshall Elementary, and Eugene Field Elementary, also perform very poorly on standardized tests and have high rates of poverty and chronic absenteeism, suggesting that the challenges facing Robertson Elementary are not unique, but rather indicative of broader systemic issues in the local area.

In contrast, Council Oak Elementary and Eliot Elementary, which are also part of the Tulsa school district, significantly outperform Robertson Elementary and the surrounding schools on academic measures, highlighting the significant disparities in educational outcomes within the same district. Despite the higher spending per student at Robertson Elementary, at $11,061, this does not seem to translate into improved academic performance, and the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.6 also does not appear to be a key driver of academic success.
