District-Level NCES Analysis

Coweta operates 8 public schools serving 3,569 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Oklahoma. The school portfolio breaks down into 3 combined, 2 high, 2 elementary, 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 Wagoner County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $8,552 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 35.4% local, 46.9% state, and 17.7% 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 15/100, ranked #423 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 8 schools offering Advanced Placement (12 AP courses district-wide), a 608.6:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 15.3% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 54.1% White, 9.9% Hispanic or Latino, 3.4% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Central Es, with a diversity index of 66.8/100.

Its largest campus is Coweta Hs, enrolling 781 students (21% of the district's total enrollment).

Coweta Hs accounts for 21.3% of all Coweta student enrollment

That concentration means Coweta-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.

Coweta school enrollment varies 2.7× across entities

Coweta school enrollment ranges from 290 students (lowest) to 781 students (highest), a spread of 491 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.

Coweta student-counselor ratio is 609:1 — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)

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 Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.

Coweta chronic absenteeism rate is 15.3% — 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 Coweta is typically wider than the Coweta-aggregate figure suggests.
