North Marion Intermediate School

Summary:

North Marion Intermediate School is a public elementary school serving grades 3-5 in the North Marion School District in Aurora, Oregon, with 360 students. However, the school has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years.

North Marion Intermediate School's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in OSAS (Oregon Statewide Assessment System) tests, is significantly below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 15.6% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 39%. Similarly, in mathematics, only 16.7% of 3rd graders, 29.7% of 4th graders, and 24.6% of 5th graders were proficient or better, compared to state averages of 39.9%, 37.7%, and 31.4%, respectively. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic students performing relatively better than their peers, but other subgroups, such as male students, English Language Learners, and students with special needs, performing significantly worse.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Woodburn Arthur Academy, a public charter school located about 5.5 miles away, North Marion Intermediate School's performance is consistently lower. Additionally, the school's ranking among Oregon elementary schools has steadily declined over the past several years, from 519th out of 709 schools in 2017-2018 to 512th out of 710 schools in 2023-2024, suggesting that the school is struggling to improve its academic outcomes despite having a relatively high student-to-teacher ratio and per-student spending that is higher than the state average.

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.
