District-Level NCES Analysis
Kinta operates 2 public schools serving 159 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Oklahoma. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined, 1 high 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 Haskell County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $16,195 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 18.2% local, 41.5% state, and 40.3% federal, a balanced mix across local, state, and federal sources, spreading budget risk across funding cycles rather than concentrating it in one.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 2 schools offering Advanced Placement (2 AP courses district-wide), a 1120:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 1.7% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 35.0% White, 5.3% African American, 4.9% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Kinta Es, enrolling 116 students (67% of the district's total enrollment).
Enrollment across the district's NCES-reporting campuses grew 2.5% between 2022-23 and 2023-24 (159 to 163 students), while the student-teacher ratio tightened by 2.2 students per teacher, per the NCES Common Core of Data annual universe files.
Of the district's $3,365,000 in reported FY2023 expenditures, 39% went to instruction, 29.6% to support services, and 23.4% to capital outlay, a capital-heavy year, consistent with active construction, renovation, or major equipment purchases. Figures come from the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey's function-level breakdown, not the aggregate per-pupil figure above.
Kinta Es accounts for 67.4% of all Kinta student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Kinta a distant remainder — means Kinta-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: combined. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Because it contains a majority of the affected population, enrollment-weighted aggregates will sit closer to this entity's reported fields than to those of smaller peers; an unweighted entity count answers a different question.
Kinta student-counselor ratio is 1120:1 — 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.
Kinta chronic absenteeism rate is 1.7% — 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.
