Lenox Elementary School

Summary:

Lenox Elementary School is a public elementary school in Portland, Oregon, serving 367 students in grades K-6 and part of the Hillsboro School District 1J. This high-performing school consistently outperforms the district and state in academic proficiency, particularly for Hispanic and special education students.

Lenox Elementary School stands out for its strong academic performance, with 58.8% of 3rd graders proficient or better in English Language Arts compared to 37.2% for the district and 39% for the state. The school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 15.9 to 20.4 over the past three years, lower than nearby Tobias Elementary and Quatama Elementary.

While Lenox outperforms the district and state, some nearby Beaverton School District schools, such as Sato Elementary, Bethany Elementary, and Springville Elementary, have even higher academic proficiency rates and rankings. Lenox also has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting it serves a more affluent population, which may contribute to its strong performance.

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.
