Warm Springs K-8 Academy

Summary:

Warm Springs K-8 Academy is an elementary school located in Warm Springs, Oregon, serving 530 students in grades K-8. The school is part of the Jefferson County School District 509J, which is ranked 136 out of 140 school districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Warm Springs K-8 Academy consistently ranks among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Oregon, with its statewide ranking ranging from 630 to 705 out of around 700 schools over the past decade. The school's performance on state assessments (OSAS) is significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts ranging from 9.4% to 16.7% and in mathematics from 5% to 25.5%, compared to the state averages of 39% to 46.9% and 26.4% to 39.9%, respectively. The school serves a student population that is predominantly Native American, with over 90% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages.

While the nearby schools in the same district, such as Metolius Elementary, Madras Elementary, and Buff Elementary, also struggle academically, they generally perform better than Warm Springs K-8 Academy. The high per-student spending at Warm Springs K-8 Academy ($22,939 in 2021-2022) may indicate that the school is allocating significant resources to support its students, but the academic outcomes suggest that these resources may not be effectively translating into improved student performance.

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.
