Myrtle Crest School

Summary:

Myrtle Crest School is an elementary school located in Myrtle Point, Oregon, serving grades K-6 with a total enrollment of 302 students. The school is part of the Myrtle Point School District 41, which is ranked 132 out of 140 districts in Oregon and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Myrtle Crest School consistently ranks in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools, with a statewide ranking between 459 and 613 out of 706-710 schools over the past several years. The school's performance on state assessments (OSAS) is also significantly below the state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from 6.8% to 47.5% across different grade levels and subject areas. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 70.53% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year. This is significantly higher than the state average and indicates a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

When comparing Myrtle Crest School to nearby schools, such as Ocean Crest Elementary School and Coquille Valley Elementary School, the academic performance gap is quite significant. These nearby schools consistently outperform Myrtle Crest School on state assessments, with proficiency rates that are often 20-30 percentage points higher. Despite the higher per-student spending of $22,578 in the 2021-2022 school year, the school's student-teacher ratio of 17.6 in the 2022-2023 school year is still relatively high, suggesting that the additional funding may not be translating into smaller class sizes or more individualized attention for students.

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.
