Oregon Trail Elementary School

Summary:

Oregon Trail Elementary School is a public elementary school in Clackamas, Oregon, serving 463 students in grades K-5 and part of the North Clackamas School District. The school consistently performs above state and district averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, with particularly strong results for Hispanic and special education students.

Oregon Trail Elementary School ranks in the top half of Oregon elementary schools and has maintained a 3- or 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years. The school's academic performance is bolstered by its relatively low percentage of economically disadvantaged students, higher per-student spending, and lower student-teacher ratio compared to some nearby schools like Bilquist Elementary and Sunnyside Elementary. However, the school's performance for Asian and multi-racial students is relatively lower, suggesting an area for potential improvement.

Among nearby schools, Scouters Mountain Elementary and Happy Valley Elementary stand out with stronger academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. The Cascade Heights Public Charter School also performs well, with higher proficiency rates in several grade levels compared to the district and state.

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.
