Clear Lake Elementary School

Summary:

Clear Lake Elementary School is a public elementary school in Keizer, Oregon, serving students from kindergarten to 5th grade as part of the Salem-Keizer School District 24J. The school has consistently ranked in the top half of Oregon elementary schools, maintaining a 3- or 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade, indicating above-average performance compared to other schools in the state.

Clear Lake Elementary School has shown strong academic performance, outperforming the district and state averages in the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and Mathematics for grades 3-5. The school's 5th-grade students, in particular, have excelled, with 44.1% proficient or better in ELA and 39.7% in Science, compared to the district and state averages. The school has also demonstrated strong performance for its Hispanic and Special Education student subgroups, ranking in the top 30-72 out of hundreds of Oregon elementary schools in these categories.

Compared to nearby schools, Gubser Elementary School and Optimum Learning Environment Charter School have shown even stronger academic performance in recent years, often outperforming Clear Lake Elementary School. However, Clear Lake's consistent statewide ranking, high resource allocation, and low student-teacher ratio suggest a focus on providing a quality education for its diverse student population, including a significant percentage of students from low-income households.

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.
