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 It is a very caring environment with a dedicated staff. Close Quote

Open Quote This used to be a good school, with full-day kindergarten for all. Given the tax rate we pay it's expected. I have now been informed it will cost $375 a month and be on a lottery system for admission. The current administration thought it best to spend funding elsewhere. Greenway School administration needs to rethink how it uses its resources and not stratify education at a critical learning stage, then wonder later why the dropout rate is so high in Oregon schools.

Open Quote The teachers have gone out of there way to help out my daughter. I think it was just GREAT that they were able to give books away to all the kids. Summertime reading. Just loving the school. My brother and sister attended Greenway and now my kids. 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.
