Summary

Wayne Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Wayne, Oklahoma, with 214 students. The school is part of the Wayne School District, which is ranked 330 out of 452 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Wayne Elementary School faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, which have risen from 2.2% in 2020-2021 to 19.0% in 2024-2025, significantly higher than the state average of 6.0%. The school's test scores are also generally below the state averages, particularly in mathematics and science, with only 33% of students proficient or better in OSTP/Mathematics and 11% in OSTP/Science, compared to state averages of 26% and 30%, respectively. Additionally, Wayne Elementary has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 64.71% to 69.16% over the past few years, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Washington Elementary, which is located about 13 miles away, Wayne Elementary generally performs worse on test scores and has higher chronic absenteeism rates. This suggests that the school may need to implement targeted interventions, such as attendance-tracking programs, additional academic support, and family engagement initiatives, to address these challenges and improve student outcomes.
