Summary:
Ft Vannoy Elementary School is a public elementary school in Grants Pass, Oregon, serving 255 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Three Rivers/Josephine County School District, which is ranked 59 out of 140 districts in the state. However, Ft Vannoy Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state averages, ranking in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools.
Ft Vannoy Elementary's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics well below the district and state levels for 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 17.4% of 3rd graders, 17% of 4th graders, and 28.6% of 5th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the district's 34.2%, 35.2%, and 43.1%, respectively, and the state's 39%, 41.9%, and 46.9%. The school's performance is particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, such as White students and male students, who rank in the bottom 10% of Oregon elementary schools.
The high proportion of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Ft Vannoy Elementary, 60% in the 2022-2023 school year, suggests that the school may be facing challenges in addressing the needs of its socioeconomically disadvantaged student population. This is in contrast to nearby schools in the Three Rivers/Josephine County School District, such as Woodland Charter School and Fruitdale Elementary School, which generally outperform Ft Vannoy Elementary in academic metrics. Addressing the challenges facing Ft Vannoy Elementary will be crucial for improving the educational outcomes of its students.
