District-Level NCES Analysis

Cache operates 3 public schools serving 2,101 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Oklahoma. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined, 1 high, 1 elementary schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Comanche County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $11,727 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 540 Oklahoma districts by per-pupil spending. See how Oklahoma compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 40.4% local, 36.2% state, and 23.4% federal, a balanced mix across local, state, and federal sources, spreading budget risk across funding cycles rather than concentrating it in one. The district's equity score is 29/100, ranked #300 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 3 schools offering Advanced Placement (5 AP courses district-wide), a 340.4:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 6.4% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 50.0% White, 18.3% Hispanic or Latino, 5.8% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Cache Hs, with a diversity index of 70.3/100.

Its largest campus is Cache Es, enrolling 766 students (38% of the district's total enrollment).

Cache Es accounts for 36.5% of all Cache student enrollment

That dominant concentration means Cache-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. 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.

Cache student-counselor ratio is 340:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts

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 Variation between sub-units within Cache is typically wider than the Cache-aggregate figure suggests.

Cache chronic absenteeism rate is 6.4% — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)

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 Values this far below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
