Sunnyside Elementary School

Summary:

Sunnyside Elementary School is a public elementary school in Clackamas, Oregon, serving 427 students in grades K-5 and part of the North Clackamas School District. While the school's academic performance is generally below the district and state averages, its performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with some groups, such as male and Hispanic students, performing relatively well, while others, like Asian students and those from low socioeconomic backgrounds, struggle.

Sunnyside Elementary's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics range from 42.2% to 47.6% and 26.6% to 31.7%, respectively, compared to the district's 39.8%-46.7% and 31.9%-38.8%, and the state's 39%-46.9% and 31.4%-39.9%. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, currently standing at 318th out of 710 Oregon elementary schools with a 3-star rating. When compared to nearby schools in the district, such as Beatrice Morrow Cannady Elementary and Scouters Mountain Elementary, Sunnyside's academic performance is generally lower.

Despite its academic challenges, Sunnyside Elementary School has a relatively high per-student spending of $21,855 and a student-teacher ratio of 18:1, which is similar to nearby schools. The school also has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (34.19%) compared to some nearby schools, but lower than others like Whitcomb Elementary (71.22%) and Bilquist Elementary (69.36%). To address these issues, the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions and support programs to improve academic outcomes, especially in areas where the school is underperforming.

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.
