Analysis of Spring Creek Elementary School's data reveals several areas of concern.

For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 48% of 3rd graders and 58% of 4th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 53% and 50% for the Broken Arrow district, respectively. In Mathematics, only 38% of 3rd graders, 45% of 4th graders, and 41% of 5th graders were proficient or better, compared to 40%, 41%, and 41% for the Broken Arrow district. Additionally, Spring Creek Elementary School has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, with 49.71% in the 2023-2024 school year, which is significantly higher than the state average.

When comparing Spring Creek Elementary School to the nearby schools in the Broken Arrow district, it becomes evident that Spring Creek is generally underperforming academically. For example, Rosewood Elementary and Wolf Creek Elementary have consistently higher test scores in ELA and Mathematics than Spring Creek. Additionally, the spending per student at Spring Creek Elementary ($6,563) is lower than some of the nearby schools, such as Vandever Elementary ($8,564) and Oak Crest Elementary ($8,734), which may contribute to the academic performance differences.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
