Sunnyslope Elementary School

Summary:

Sunnyslope Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Roseburg, Oregon, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 261 students. The school is part of the Douglas County School District 4, which is ranked 55 out of 140 school districts in Oregon and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Sunnyslope Elementary School consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 33.3% of 3rd graders, 37.5% of 4th graders, and 23.7% of 5th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the district averages of 39.9%, 39%, and 44.4%, respectively. The school's performance is particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, such as male students, white students, special education students, and low socioeconomic status students, who all rank in the bottom half or third of Oregon elementary schools in ELA. As a result, Sunnyslope Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2023-2024 school year.

In contrast, nearby schools within the same district, such as Melrose Elementary School and Hucrest Elementary School, consistently outperform Sunnyslope Elementary School in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency, with rankings in the top third of Oregon elementary schools. This stark contrast highlights the need for a comprehensive review of the school's instructional practices, resource allocation, and targeted interventions to address the root causes of the academic gaps, especially given the school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

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.
