Summary

Vinita High School is a public high school located in Vinita, Oklahoma, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 400 students. The school is part of the Vinita School District, which is ranked 172 out of 452 districts in Oklahoma and is rated 3 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Vinita High School faces several challenges, including low test scores, high chronic absenteeism, and inconsistent graduation rates. The school's four-year graduation rate has fluctuated between 69.6% and 95.2% in recent years, which is an area of concern. Additionally, the school has experienced high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 5.1% to 19.0%, significantly higher than the state average. Academically, only 36% of 11th-grade students are proficient or better in English Language Arts, and 18% are proficient or better in Mathematics, both below the state average. However, the school's performance in Science and U.S. History is slightly better, with 60% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in U.S. History.

When compared to nearby high schools, Vinita High School's performance is mixed. While it outperforms Chelsea High School in most metrics, it lags behind schools like Fairland High School and Adair High School in areas such as test scores and graduation rates. The school's spending per student ($11,485 in 2018-2019) is comparable to the nearby schools, suggesting that funding alone may not be the primary driver of the school's performance.
