Lava Ridge Elementary School

Summary:

Lava Ridge Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Bend, Oregon, serving 434 students in grades K-5 and part of the Bend-LaPine Administrative School District 1.

Lava Ridge Elementary consistently ranks among the top 30% of elementary schools in Oregon, with strong academic performance in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science that generally exceeds the district and state averages. The school's female and Hispanic students perform exceptionally well, ranking in the top 25% of Oregon elementary schools for these subgroups. However, the school's male, White, and special education students lag behind, highlighting disparities in academic achievement. Interestingly, despite having a relatively low percentage of economically disadvantaged students, Lava Ridge's low-socioeconomic status students perform in the top 4% of Oregon elementary schools for this subgroup.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Bend-LaPine district, Lava Ridge outperforms the district average but falls behind the top-performing schools like Highland School at Kenwood Elementary and Amity Creek Elementary. This suggests that Lava Ridge's leadership may want to investigate the practices and strategies employed by the highest-performing schools in the district to potentially replicate their success and address the disparities in subgroup performance at Lava Ridge.

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.
