Summary:
The 74110 zip code area of Tulsa, Oklahoma is home to 4 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools, including Sequoyah Elementary School, Springdale Elementary School, Anderson Elementary School, and Felicitas Mendez International School, face significant challenges, with most students coming from high-poverty backgrounds and struggling to meet state and district performance standards.
Among the schools, Felicitas Mendez International School stands out as the highest performer, with 14% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 10% in math, compared to the Tulsa district averages of 16% and 13%, respectively. However, even Felicitas Mendez struggles, with performance well below the Oklahoma state averages. The other schools, including Anderson Elementary School, which has the highest test scores in the group, still perform significantly below state and district levels.
Across the 4 schools, chronic absenteeism rates are extremely high, ranging from 19% to 22%, and the vast majority of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of poverty in the communities served. While spending per student varies, from $9,366 at Felicitas Mendez International School to $12,549 at Anderson Elementary School, the overall performance of these schools suggests that more resources and support may be needed to address the significant equity challenges they face.
