Echo Shaw Elementary School

Summary:

Echo Shaw Elementary School is a public elementary school in Cornelius, Oregon, serving 377 students in grades PK-6 as part of the Forest Grove School District 15.

Despite being part of the district, Echo Shaw Elementary consistently underperforms its peers in academic achievement. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are significantly lower than the district and state averages, with only 17.4% to 22.4% of students meeting or exceeding standards across grades 3-6. This places the school in the bottom 8% of elementary schools in Oregon, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's demographics also stand out, with 72.15% of students coming from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, much higher than nearby schools like Dilley Elementary (18.93%) and Harvey Clarke Elementary (32%).

While Echo Shaw's English Language Learner students have shown relatively stronger performance compared to other subgroups, the school's overall academic trajectory has been declining over the past several years. This suggests the need for a comprehensive review of the school's educational strategies and resource allocation to better support students, especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds, and improve student outcomes.

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.
