District-Level NCES Analysis

Claremore operates 6 public schools serving 3,944 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Oklahoma. The school portfolio breaks down into 4 combined, 1 high, 1 middle 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 Rogers County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $10,696 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 540 Oklahoma districts by per-pupil spending. See how Oklahoma compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 36.8% local, 45.7% state, and 17.5% 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 #299 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 6 schools offering Advanced Placement (11 AP courses district-wide), a 438.3:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 21.3% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 42.2% White, 14.5% Hispanic or Latino, 1.7% Asian across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Claremont Es, with a diversity index of 72.6/100.

Its largest campus is Claremore Hs, enrolling 1,349 students (34% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Roosa Es, at 376 students, a 4x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.

Claremore Hs accounts for 34.2% of all Claremore student enrollment

That dominant concentration means Claremore-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.

Claremore school enrollment varies 3.6× across entities

Claremore school enrollment ranges from 376 students (lowest) to 1,349 students (highest), a spread of 973 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.

Claremore student-counselor ratio is 438:1 — 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.

Claremore chronic absenteeism rate is 21.3% — 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 Claremore is typically wider than the Claremore-aggregate figure suggests.
