Silver Crest Elementary School

Summary:

Silver Crest Elementary School is a public K-8 school in Silverton, Oregon, with a total enrollment of 136 students. The school is part of the Silver Falls School District 4J, which is ranked 25 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Silver Crest Elementary has seen mixed academic performance, with some grade levels and subjects excelling while others struggle. The school's 6th and 7th graders performed significantly better than the district and state in English Language Arts, but 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders fell well below average in both English and Math. The school's 7th graders, however, excelled in Math, with 63.2% proficiency compared to the district's 38.6% and the state's 30.5%. Silver Crest's relatively low percentage of students from low-income backgrounds (24.26%) and higher student-teacher ratio (16.7 students per teacher) may be contributing factors to its performance.

Comparing Silver Crest to nearby schools reveals some interesting patterns. Bethany Charter School, just 9.49 miles away, consistently outperforms Silver Crest and the district in both English and Math. Meanwhile, Victor Point Elementary, 4.43 miles away, is the highest-performing school in the district, ranking in the top 100 elementary schools in Oregon. Silver Crest's performance has also fluctuated over the years, suggesting the school may be facing challenges in maintaining consistent academic achievement.

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.
