District-Level NCES Analysis
Weleetka operates 3 public schools serving 382 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Oklahoma. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 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 Okfuskee County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $13,352 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 26.1% local, 46.9% state, and 27.0% 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 57/100, ranked #37 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 643:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 29.0% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 36.7% White, 6.0% Hispanic or Latino, 2.9% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Weleetka Hs, with a diversity index of 72.4/100.
Its largest campus is Spence Memorial Es, enrolling 230 students (58% of the district's total enrollment).
Spence Memorial Es accounts for 57.8% of all Weleetka student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Weleetka a distant remainder — means Weleetka-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.
Weleetka school enrollment varies 2.9× across entities
Weleetka school enrollment ranges from 79 students (lowest) to 230 students (highest), a spread of 151 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.
Weleetka student-counselor ratio is 643:1 — 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.
Weleetka chronic absenteeism rate is 29.0% — 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 Weleetka is typically wider than the Weleetka-aggregate figure suggests.
