UNION operates 17 public schools serving 14,890 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Oklahoma. The school portfolio breaks down into 13 other, 2 high, 2 middle schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 14,950 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Tulsa County County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $12,490 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 48.0% local, 37.7% state, and 14.3% 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 $48,775 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 25/100, ranked #360 of 439 in Oklahoma against a state average of 38 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 17 schools offering Advanced Placement (20 AP courses district-wide), a 485.9:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 23.5% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 41.0% Hispanic or Latino, 22.4% White, 15.0% African American across the district's schools.
Union Hs accounts for 23.9% of all UNION student enrollment
That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means UNION-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.
UNION school enrollment varies 10× across entities
UNION school enrollment ranges from 348 students (lowest) to 3,569 students (highest), a spread of 3,221 students. That spread reflects typical mixed-portfolio variation between specialty programs and large neighbourhood schools. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
UNION student-counselor ratio is 486:1 — 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.
UNION chronic absenteeism rate is 23.5% — 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 UNION is typically wider than the UNION-aggregate figure suggests.
