Hartley Elementary School

Summary:

The school is part of the Reynolds School District 7, which is ranked 137 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Hartley Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Oregon elementary schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 705 out of 710 schools for the 2023-2024 school year.

Hartley Elementary's academic performance is significantly below state and district averages, with only 11.7% of 3rd graders, 7.7% of 4th graders, and 18.9% of 5th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 39%, 41.9%, and 46.9%, respectively. The school's math and science proficiency rates are also much lower than the state and district averages. Additionally, Hartley Elementary has a high percentage of students from disadvantaged backgrounds, with 98.15% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, and a higher percentage of minority students, with 32% Hispanic and 12% African American students.

The challenges faced by Hartley Elementary are not unique, as the nearby schools within the Reynolds School District 7, such as Woodland Elementary, Glenfair Elementary, Davis Elementary, Salish Ponds Elementary, and Wilkes Elementary, also perform poorly, with most ranking in the bottom 20% of Oregon elementary schools. This suggests that the issues at Hartley Elementary are part of a larger systemic problem within the district.

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.
