District-Level NCES Analysis
Whitebead operates 1 public schools serving 333 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Oklahoma. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined 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 Garvin County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $9,309 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 54 of 540 Oklahoma districts by per-pupil spending. See how Oklahoma compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 25.7% local, 53.6% state, and 20.7% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 37/100, ranked #233 of 439 in Oklahoma against a state average of 38, in line with the typical spread seen across the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 588:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 17.0% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 40.8% Hispanic or Latino, 39.1% White, 1.0% Asian across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Whitebead Public School, enrolling 294 students (100% of the district's total enrollment).
Whitebead Public School accounts for 88.3% of all Whitebead student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Whitebead a distant remainder — means Whitebead-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.
Whitebead student-counselor ratio is 588:1 — 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.
Whitebead chronic absenteeism rate is 17.0% — 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 Whitebead is typically wider than the Whitebead-aggregate figure suggests.
