Irving Elementary School

Summary:

Irving Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Eugene, Oregon, serving 258 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 Oregon and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Irving Elementary School has shown a mixed academic performance, with some strengths and areas for improvement. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school outperformed the Bethel School District and the state of Oregon in the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades. However, in previous years, the school's performance was more varied, with some grades performing above the district and state, while others were below. The school's performance in Science for 5th grade has been consistently below the district and state averages.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Bethel School District, Irving Elementary School generally outperforms its peers, such as Danebo Elementary and Fairfield Elementary. However, when compared to elementary schools in the neighboring Eugene School District 4J, which has a higher district ranking, Irving Elementary School's performance lags behind schools like Yujin Gakuen Elementary and Spring Creek Elementary. The school's high percentage of low-socioeconomic status (SES) students, around 64% in recent years, may contribute to the academic challenges it faces compared to higher-performing schools in the Eugene School District 4J.

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 I have had children attending Irving Elementary for 5 years and have had nothing but positive experiences. The staff are dedicated and go above and beyond to provide the best environment for our kids. Even with the challenges brought by budget cuts and increased class sizes, the entire staff has worked together to minimize the affect on the children. The test scores reflect the dedication of the teachers. The PTO is very active and supports the teachers in every way they can. It is a welcoming and friendly school community. 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.
