Latta Middle School has consistently ranked among the top middle schools in Oklahoma, with rankings as high as 16th out of 233 schools in 2017-2018 and 22nd out of 228 schools in 2018-2019. The school's performance on state assessments (OSTP) is generally above the state average, particularly in 8th-grade mathematics, where 68% of students were proficient or better in 2023-2024, compared to the state average of 25%. Latta Middle School's 8th-grade science proficiency rate of 42% in 2022-2023 is also higher than the state average of 35%. Despite having a lower per-student spending of $1,373 in 2018-2019 compared to nearby schools like Stratford Middle School ($8,372) and Byng Junior High School ($8,177), the school maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 14.6 in 2022-2023 to 16 in 2023-2024.

The relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at Latta Middle School, ranging from 33.94% in 2021-2022 to 52.97% in 2023-2024, suggests that the school serves a more economically diverse student population compared to some of the nearby schools, such as Konowa Junior High School, which had a free/reduced lunch rate of 93.83% in 2023-2024. This diversity may contribute to the school's academic success, as research has shown that socioeconomic diversity can have a positive impact on student outcomes.

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.
