District-Level NCES Analysis
Bixby operates 10 public schools serving 7,800 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Oklahoma. The school portfolio breaks down into 4 combined, 4 elementary, 1 high, 1 middle schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Tulsa County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $8,862 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 54 of 540 Oklahoma districts by per-pupil spending. See how Oklahoma compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 55.4% local, 33.4% state, and 11.2% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 6/100, ranked #437 of 439 in Oklahoma against a state average of 38, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 10 schools offering Advanced Placement (18 AP courses district-wide), a 448.5:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 16.3% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 55.6% White, 14.2% Hispanic or Latino, 6.1% Asian across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Central Es, with a diversity index of 68.6/100.
Its largest campus is Bixby Hs, enrolling 2,405 students (29% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Central Intermediate School, at 451 students, a 5x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Bixby Hs accounts for 28.7% of all Bixby student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Bixby-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Bixby school enrollment varies 5.3× across entities
Bixby school enrollment ranges from 451 students (lowest) to 2,405 students (highest), a spread of 1,954 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio, most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Bixby student-counselor ratio is 449:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Bixby chronic absenteeism rate is 16.3% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Variation between sub-units within Bixby is typically wider than the Bixby-aggregate figure suggests.
