Millicoma School

Summary:

Millicoma School is an elementary school serving grades 3-6 in Coos Bay, Oregon, part of the Coos Bay School District 9. With 485 students, Millicoma School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools over the past decade, currently at 472 out of 710 schools.

Millicoma School faces significant academic challenges, with test scores consistently below the state average across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, only 32% of 3rd graders were proficient in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 39%. The school's performance also varies greatly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic students performing relatively well but female, white, and special education students performing poorly. Additionally, Millicoma School has a high percentage of students (46.39% in 2022-2023) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage.

Interestingly, Millicoma School's performance is generally lower than the nearby Hillcrest Elementary School and Lighthouse Charter School, which are part of the higher-performing North Bend School District. Millicoma School's proximity to Lighthouse Charter School (0.92 miles) could present an opportunity for collaboration and shared learning, but the school will need to implement more effective and sustainable improvement strategies to address its longstanding academic struggles.

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.
