District-Level NCES Analysis
Stringtown operates 2 public schools serving 248 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 Atoka County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $16,199 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 19.1% local, 44.6% state, and 36.3% 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 56/100, ranked #43 of 439 in Oklahoma against a state average of 38, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 252:1 student-counselor ratio, somewhat above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 7.2% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 43.2% White, 3.3% African American, 1.3% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Stringtown Es, enrolling 171 students (68% of the district's total enrollment).
Stringtown Es accounts for 67.9% of all Stringtown student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Stringtown a distant remainder — means Stringtown-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.
Stringtown student-counselor ratio is 252:1 — 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 Stringtown is typically wider than the Stringtown-aggregate figure suggests.
Stringtown chronic absenteeism rate is 7.2% — 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.
