Winterhaven School

Summary:

Winterhaven School is a highly-ranked public elementary school in Portland, Oregon, serving 313 students from kindergarten through 8th grade. It is part of the Portland School District 1J, which is ranked 17th out of 140 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Winterhaven School consistently outperforms the district and the state of Oregon in standardized test scores, with 92.3% of its 5th-grade students scoring proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 59.6% for the district and 46.9% for the state. The school has been ranked among the top 5 elementary schools in Oregon for the past several years, placing it in the top 0.4% of elementary schools in the state. Winterhaven also excels in serving various student subgroups, ranking in the top 1% of Oregon elementary schools for male students, white students, and students with special needs, and ranking 1st in the state for serving low-socioeconomic status students.

While Winterhaven School outperforms the nearby schools in the Portland School District 1J, there are some notable differences. For example, Abernethy Elementary School, located just 0.75 miles away, also ranks among the top 10 elementary schools in Oregon and has similar high academic performance. However, Winterhaven School has a relatively low percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (19.81%) compared to some of the other nearby schools, such as Creston Elementary (77.69%) and Grout Elementary (69.62%), suggesting it may serve a more affluent student population.

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.

Open Quote Lots of bullying, my child has been pretty stressed out at this school. It is great they push for success, but it would be nice to have some of the pressure taken off the students. Close Quote

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.
