Summary:
The city of Creswell, Oregon is home to three schools: Creslane Elementary School, Creswell High School, and Creswell Middle School, all part of the Creswell School District 40. While Creslane Elementary and Creswell High stand out as top performers, the data reveals potential areas for improvement, particularly in addressing equity concerns and supporting economically disadvantaged students across the district.
Creslane Elementary School consistently outperforms the state average in English Language Arts and Math proficiency, earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, the school's high free/reduced lunch rate of 67.58% suggests a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. In contrast, Creswell High School, ranked 62nd out of 241 Oregon high schools, has a lower free/reduced lunch rate of 36.67%, indicating a more affluent student population. The high school's 11th grade English Language Arts proficiency rate is higher than the state average, but its Math and Science proficiency rates are closer to the state average.
Creswell Middle School's performance is more mixed, with 8th grade English Language Arts proficiency outperforming the state average, but 6th and 7th grade lagging behind. The school's free/reduced lunch rate of 43.02% falls between the elementary and high school. Across the district, spending per student and student-teacher ratios are relatively consistent, ranging from $18,445 to $19,259 per student and 16.3 to 17.5 students per teacher. These insights suggest the need to further investigate potential equity issues and ensure that all students, regardless of their socioeconomic background, have access to the resources and support they need to succeed.
