Public Grades PK, KG-8

Summary

Waukomis Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Waukomis, Oklahoma, with 271 students. The school is part of the Waukomis School District, which is ranked 261 out of 452 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Waukomis Elementary has seen its statewide ranking fluctuate over the years, ranging from 298 out of 845 Oklahoma elementary schools in 2009-2010 (3-star rating) to 644 out of 957 in 2014-2015 (2-star rating).

Waukomis Elementary consistently underperforms the state average in proficiency rates across English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates were 16% in ELA, 19% in Math, and 29% in Science, compared to the state averages of 26%, 26%, and 30% respectively. The school has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 7.2% to 19.0% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state's target of 10% or less. Additionally, Waukomis Elementary has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 75.28% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, much higher than the state average.

Interestingly, Waukomis Elementary's academic performance lags significantly behind the nearby Drummond Elementary School, a high-performing school in the state. In 2024-2025, Drummond Elementary had proficiency rates of 39% in ELA, 42% in Math, and 59% in Science, far exceeding Waukomis Elementary's results. Waukomis Elementary's low-income students also perform particularly poorly, ranking in the bottom 10% of Oklahoma elementary schools for this subgroup in 2020-2021. Despite these challenges, Waukomis Elementary's spending per student of $8,390 in 2018-2019 is on par with the nearby Enid schools, suggesting that funding alone is not the primary driver of the school's academic struggles.
