What this school's NCES data tells you
Liberty Public School reports 349 enrolled students to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) alongside 24.0 full-time-equivalent teachers, producing a 15.6:1 student-teacher ratio. That figure sits 5% below the Oklahoma state mean of 16.4:1, signalling more teacher attention per pupil than the state benchmark. Against the national 2024-25 average of 15.9:1, it is 2% lower, a useful calibration for families comparing districts across state lines.
Counselor coverage works out to roughly 698 students per counselor, above the ASCA-recommended ceiling of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 10.6% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.
On the finance side, the surrounding Liberty spends $10,331 per pupil district-wide, below the Oklahoma average of $14,176 and below the national average of $19,490. Revenue comes 14.0% from local sources (property taxes), 56.9% from the state, and 29.1% from federal programs per the NCES F-33 finance survey. Taken together, these measurements produce a Resource Investment Index of 45/100 (D), calculated from 4 distinct NCES and CRDC indicators measuring resource allocation rather than academic outcomes.
