Springfield High School

Summary:

Springfield High School is a public high school serving 1,317 students in grades 9-12 in Springfield, Oregon. The school is part of the Springfield School District 19, which is ranked 93 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of the Springfield School District, Springfield High School consistently ranks in the bottom half of Oregon high schools, with a ranking between 186-235 out of 241-268 schools over the past 5-10 years. The school's performance on state assessments is significantly below the state and district averages, with only 18.4% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 45.2%. The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with particularly low rankings for Asian, Hispanic, and White students.

Interestingly, other schools within the Springfield School District, such as Thurston High School and the Academy of Arts and Academics, perform significantly better than Springfield High School on academic measures. This highlights the potential for improvement at Springfield High School, which may be influenced by factors such as the high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds and the relatively high student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools.

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.
