Summary:
The city of Lyons, Oregon has only one public school, Mari-Linn Elementary School, which serves grades K-8 with an enrollment of 184 students. The school is part of the North Santiam School District 29J, which is ranked 68 out of 140 districts in the state.
Mari-Linn Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools over the past three years, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally below the district and state averages across all grade levels. However, the school's strongest performance is in 8th grade English Language Arts, where 42.1% of students were proficient or better, compared to 38.8% for the district and 40.6% for the state.
With 70.11% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, Mari-Linn Elementary School serves a high-need population. The school's spending of $23,820 per student is relatively high, but this does not appear to be translating into stronger academic outcomes. The school's student-teacher ratio of 16:1 suggests smaller class sizes, which could be a positive factor in supporting student learning.
