Danebo Elementary School

Summary:

Danebo Elementary School is a public elementary school in Eugene, Oregon, serving 254 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Bethel School District 52, which is ranked 117 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Danebo Elementary School consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages in standardized test scores. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 21.9% of 3rd graders, 23.5% of 4th graders, and 29.2% of 5th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, while just 12.5% of 3rd graders, 14.7% of 4th graders, and 12.5% of 5th graders were proficient or better in Mathematics. The school's performance also varies significantly among different student subgroups, with Hispanic and low-income students performing better than the overall population but still lagging behind state averages, while female and white students perform significantly worse than their peers statewide. With 64.96% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Danebo Elementary School's high percentage of low-income students may be a contributing factor to its academic challenges.

When compared to nearby schools in the Bethel School District, such as Irving Elementary School and Fairfield Elementary School, Danebo Elementary School's consistently low test scores and overall ranking suggest that there may be opportunities for improvement through targeted interventions, additional resources, or a closer examination of the school's instructional practices and support systems.

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 In years past they may have had more students per teacher, but the teachers were and are exceptional. My granddaughters and all the students were kept well focused, encouraged, Oh and the teachers never let on if they were burn out or tired. Always had a smile and an encouraging word. 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.
