Grandhaven Elementary School

Summary:

Grandhaven Elementary School is a public elementary school located in McMinnville, Oregon, serving 443 students in grades K-5 and part of the McMinnville School District 40. The school consistently performs above the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, with its Hispanic, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status student groups performing particularly well. However, Grandhaven's English Language Learner students have struggled, and the school's overall ranking and rating place it in the middle to upper-middle range among Oregon elementary schools.

Compared to nearby schools, Grandhaven's academic performance is generally stronger than other schools in the McMinnville district, such as Wascher Elementary, Sue Buel Elementary, and Willamette Elementary. However, Memorial Elementary, also in the McMinnville district, consistently outperforms Grandhaven across all grade levels and subject areas. Additionally, Ewing Young Elementary and Dundee Elementary, both in the Newberg School District, demonstrate higher academic achievement than Grandhaven in many areas.

Grandhaven's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (70.43%) is significantly higher than the nearby schools in the McMinnville district, suggesting that the school serves a more economically disadvantaged student population. This may be a contributing factor to the school's academic challenges, and targeted interventions and support could help improve student outcomes. Overall, Grandhaven Elementary School demonstrates both strengths and areas for improvement, and a closer examination of its instructional practices and resource allocation could help the school and district develop strategies to better support student learning and achievement.

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.
