Hall Elementary School

Summary:

Hall Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Gresham, Oregon, serving 404 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Gresham-Barlow School District, which is ranked 95 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite serving a high percentage of disadvantaged students, with 71.04% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch and a significant number of English Language Learners, Hall Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of Oregon elementary schools, with a statewide ranking between 640-701 out of 710 schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on state assessments (OSAS) is significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 12.3% of 3rd graders, 20% of 4th graders, and 9.1% of 5th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the district averages of 30%, 33.8%, and 36.6%, respectively.

The challenges faced by Hall Elementary are further highlighted by the performance of nearby schools in the Gresham-Barlow School District, such as North Gresham Elementary, East Gresham Elementary, and Powell Valley Elementary, which generally perform better academically and have lower percentages of students from disadvantaged backgrounds. This suggests that Hall Elementary may not be receiving the necessary resources and funding to effectively support its high-needs student population, as the school has a relatively low per-student spending of $16,835 and a higher student-teacher ratio of 16.1 compared to the other nearby schools.

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.
