Shaver Elementary School

Summary:

Shaver Elementary School is a public elementary school in Portland, Oregon, serving 292 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Parkrose School District 3, which is ranked 121 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Shaver Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools, with a ranking between 452 and 694 out of 706-710 schools over the past several years. The school's performance on state assessments is significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 18.4% of 3rd graders, 45.7% of 4th graders, and 18.8% of 5th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts in 2023-2024, compared to the state averages of 39%, 41.9%, and 46.9%, respectively. The school's performance in Mathematics and Science is also consistently lower than the state and district averages.

Shaver Elementary has a high percentage of students from disadvantaged backgrounds, with 81.51% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023. The school serves a diverse student population, with significant percentages of Hispanic, African American, and English Language Learner students. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending than the district average, these resources do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes for students, suggesting that the school may need to evaluate its resource allocation and instructional practices to better support its 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.
