Wilson High School

Summary:

Wilson High School is a small public high school in Henryetta, Oklahoma, serving around 200 students in grades 9-12. The school has a diverse student population, with a significant Native American representation as well as a mix of White, Hispanic, and multiracial students.

Despite its diversity, Wilson High School has consistently struggled academically, ranking in the bottom half of Oklahoma high schools in recent years. The school's test scores are alarmingly low, with only 25% of 11th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, 0% in Mathematics, and single-digit percentages in Science and U.S. History. This poor academic performance is further compounded by the school's high poverty rates, with 74-83% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. In contrast, nearby schools like Preston High School and Morris High School have significantly higher test scores and better school rankings.

The challenges at Wilson High School extend beyond just academic performance. The school's statewide ranking has been steadily declining, from a high of 278 out of 428 Oklahoma high schools in 2008-2009 to its current ranking of 404 out of 439 in 2022-2023. This trend is concerning and suggests the need for a comprehensive review of the school's educational strategies, resource allocation, and support systems to address the underlying issues and ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed, regardless of their background or socioeconomic status.

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.
