Counselor coverage works out to roughly 428 students per counselor, above the ASCA-recommended ceiling of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 18.2% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.
On the finance side, the surrounding Jenks spends $12,342 per pupil district-wide, below the Oklahoma average of $14,176 and below the national average of $19,490.
