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.

Open Quote AYP= (Adequate Yearly Progress), RC= (Report Card) and RCDS= (Report Card Detail Sheet). All 3 are found on http://www.ode.state.or.us/data/reportcard/reports.aspx
I will attempt to explain all 3 reports the way I see it. Let’s start with the RCDS. RCDS states a satisfactory rating. Why? It combines 2 years (from 2010 -2011). Remember, I would like to see growth year to year. I see it diminish. Attendance, participation, and AYP are the only thing that saves this report as good. That is nothing to me if education falls. I wanted to see if everything was “good” and see a downward trend.
RCDS: It is a 2 year rating averaged from 2010 to 2011 and will show the 2 years respectively. I like to see growth and will report what I see Exceed/Meet for each year. I personally would like to see growth. Attendance, Participation, and AYP cannot be trusted if you look to the report fully. The reason is that attendance and participation should be a part of any school and monitored by truancy laws. The AYP shuffles students to make Oaks scores. IE they will concentrate on good students and leave the rest out.
Let us look, for READING; I would like to Exceed/Meet from 2010 to 2011. We all want that from any school so this report will only use Exceed/Meet. From 2010 to 2011, the Economically Disadvantaged went from 27/128 in 2010 to 27/121 in 2011. Meeting the goal went down. Limited English Proficient went from 5/35 to 8/48 which shows growth in both in both exceeding/meeting (Congratulations). Students with disabilities show 5/21 in 2010 to 4/13 2011. Wow, exceed went down/ the meet went down too (The disabled people are people too!). Hispanic went from 17/100 in 2010 to 23/104 in 2011. This is excellent for the Hispanic group in this report. White of not Hispanic origin went from 39/64 in 2010 to 28/48 in 2011. Both Exceeding /Meeting went down. This is bad for white students.
Let us look, for MATH; Again I use the Exceed/Meet method for each year. The Economically Disadvantaged went from 26/117 in 2010 to 35/71 in 2011 which states that it exceeded from 2010 and met much less in 2011. Why is this much different from reading? Reading and math are paramount! Limited English Proficient is 3/34 for 2010 and 12/34 for 2011. (I give a great Congrats.). Students with Disabilities are 4/20 for 2010 and 3/11 for 2011. That is abysmal. Hispanic is 15/98 in 2010 to 30/59 in 2011. That is great for the exceeding group but bad for the meeting Oaks scores which went down this year in 2011. White of not Hispanic origin went from 32/63 in 2009 and 24/39 in 2011. Both Exceeding/Meeting goals went down and do not fare well for white students.
RC (Report card)
The Report card only states the obvious. Note only that an expulsion took place due to weapons. This is a school that is only k-6. Science is not a big priority. Knowing this, Look to the Report Card (RC) what do I see? Let us look to Achievement Data in the above link. Reading went down across the board. Math went down across the board. This is all from 2010 to 2011.
AYP (Adequate Yearly Progress) it seems to me that other than yearly attendance and attending the OAKS scores, there is really nothing that should keep your children in this school. This is Just my opinion. It is only a school with a satisfactory rating. Close Quote

Open Quote I am stymied, this school has achieved just and I mean just a satisfactory rating which can be viewed here: http://schools.oregonlive.com/school/Hillsboro/Mooberry-Elementary-School/
Knowing this, I will let you know that just getting out of the troubled list is the least of the worries for this school. I wont get into bullying from students or teachers because in my opinion, all students are behind more and more the longer they stay there. I withdrew my children to get into a public online school and now realize that they are a year or more behind. Why did the school get a satisfactory rating? was it for attendance and just kids being there for the OAKS exam? Look to the different grades and see how they achieved. This in my humble opinion is abysmal. My opinion is that they did more harm than good. Close Quote

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.
