McKinley Elementary School

Summary:

McKinley Elementary School is a public elementary school in Beaverton, Oregon, serving 650 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Beaverton School District 48J.

While the Beaverton School District is ranked 19 out of 140 districts in Oregon and has a 4-star rating, McKinley Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state averages in standardized test scores for English Language Arts and Mathematics. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 24.8% of 3rd graders, 33.7% of 4th graders, and 31.7% of 5th graders at McKinley were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the district's scores of 50.9%, 57.7%, and 62%, respectively. McKinley also struggles with its performance among certain student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 10% of Oregon elementary schools for Hispanic students and students with special needs, as well as the bottom 30% for English Language Learners.

Additionally, McKinley Elementary has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 67.23%, significantly higher than nearby schools like Oak Hills Elementary (22.58%) and Bethany Elementary (21.45%). This suggests that McKinley serves a lower-income community, which may contribute to the academic challenges faced by the school. As a result, McKinley has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years.

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.
