Summary:
The Gladstone School District 115 in Oregon is home to two elementary schools: John Wetten Elementary School and Gladstone Center for Children and Families. John Wetten Elementary stands out as the larger and higher-performing school, with significantly higher enrollment, stronger test scores, and more resources allocated per student.
John Wetten Elementary has a student enrollment of 574, compared to 116 students at Gladstone Center for Children and Families. In academic performance, John Wetten consistently outperforms the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science proficiency for grades 3-5. The school has maintained a statewide ranking in the top half of Oregon elementary schools over the past three years.
While both schools are part of the Gladstone School District 115, which is ranked 62 out of 140 districts in Oregon, the significant differences in spending per student ($17,129 at John Wetten vs. $7,734 at Gladstone Center) and student-teacher ratios (13.7 vs. 14.4) suggest that resources may be allocated unevenly within the district. This disparity raises questions about equity and the distribution of educational opportunities for all students in the Gladstone School District 115.
