Oneida operates 3 public schools serving 1,463 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Tennessee. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 other, 1 high, 1 middle schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 1,401 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Scott County County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $10,988 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 22.2% local, 51.6% state, and 26.2% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $57,831 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 23/100, ranked #121 of 140 in Tennessee against a state average of 38 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 3 schools offering Advanced Placement (1 AP courses district-wide), a 299:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 18.1% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 94.5% White, 2.0% Hispanic or Latino, 0.8% African American across the district's schools.
Oneida Elementary accounts for 54.0% of all Oneida student enrollment
That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Oneida-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: other. 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.
Oneida school enrollment varies 2.7× across entities
Oneida school enrollment ranges from 282 students (lowest) to 756 students (highest), a spread of 474 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.
Oneida student-counselor ratio is 299:1 — 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 Oneida is typically wider than the Oneida-aggregate figure suggests.
Oneida chronic absenteeism rate is 18.1% — 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 Oneida is typically wider than the Oneida-aggregate figure suggests.
