St Marys Public School

Summary:

St Marys Public School is an elementary school located in Mount Angel, Oregon, serving 289 students in grades K-5 and part of the Mt Angel School District 91, which is ranked 36 out of 140 districts in the state.

Over the past 10 years, St Marys Public School's statewide ranking and rating have fluctuated, ranging from a high of 278 (3-star rating) in 2018-2019 to a low of 529 (1-star rating) in 2022-2023. The school's performance is generally below the state and district averages in OSAS/English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, with the exception of 5th-grade English Language Arts. However, the school's male and Hispanic students tend to perform better than female and low-income students. Nearby schools like Woodburn Arthur Academy, Gervais Elementary School, and Washington Elementary School generally perform worse than St Marys Public School, while some higher-performing schools in the Silver Falls School District, such as Robert Frost Elementary and Bethany Charter School, significantly outperform it.

St Marys Public School has a relatively high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 56.75% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year. This may contribute to the school's lower academic performance compared to higher-income schools in the area. Additionally, the school's student-teacher ratio has increased from 14.8 in 2020-2021 to 19.1 in 2022-2023, which may impact the level of individual attention and support available to students. Addressing these challenges could be key to improving the school's overall performance and outcomes for students.

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.
