Summary:

Nyssa Virtual School is an alternative public virtual school serving grades K-12 in Nyssa, Oregon, with 145 students enrolled. The school is part of the Nyssa School District 26, which is ranked 40th out of 140 school districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Nyssa Virtual School outperforms the Nyssa School District 26 and the state of Oregon in English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency across grades 3-5, with 84.6% proficiency in 5th grade ELA compared to 42.7% for the district and 46.9% for the state. In Science, the school significantly outperforms the district and state in both 5th and 8th grade. However, the school's Mathematics performance is more mixed, with strong results in 4th grade but weaker outcomes in 5th grade.

While Nyssa Virtual School's academic performance is impressive, the nearby Four Rivers Community School, a public charter school, also demonstrates strong academic performance, particularly in ELA. This suggests that Nyssa Virtual School may benefit from collaborating with or learning from the practices of high-performing schools in the region. Additionally, the lack of data on free and reduced lunch rates for Nyssa Virtual School makes it difficult to assess the school's socioeconomic diversity and how it may be impacting academic outcomes.

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.
