How Wanette Es compares with Oklahoma and U.S. medians
Larger classes than state median
20:1 - 3.9 above the Oklahoma state median of 16.1:1, indicating larger average class loads than typical schools in the state.
Wanette Es enrolls fewer students than most Oklahoma schools, yet its student-teacher ratio is still on the heavier side of the state distribution. Small enrollment therefore does not translate into more teacher capacity per student here. That makes staffing capacity, rather than campus scale alone, the useful interpretation. The counselor, attendance, and program indicators below help show whether the pressure is narrow or part of a broader resource constraint.
Wanette Es's 36.7% chronic-absence rate is more consequential than a generic staffing label: at least one quarter of students missed 10% or more of school days in the 2021-22 collection. That level can affect instruction, counseling demand, and continuity even when other reported resources look ordinary. The dataset records the scale of absence but not its causes, so it should prompt a current-year question rather than a conclusion about school management.
