Against the national 2024-25 average of 15.7:1, it is 32% higher, a useful calibration for families comparing districts across state lines.

Counselor coverage works out to roughly 404 students per counselor, above the ASCA-recommended ceiling of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 46.0% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.

On the finance side, the surrounding Tulsa spends $12,178 per pupil district-wide, below the Oklahoma average of $12,594 and below the national average of $16,593.
