St Paul Elementary School

Summary:

St Paul Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 142 students in grades PK-6 in the small town of Saint Paul, Oregon, which is part of the St Paul School District 45.

St Paul Elementary School consistently outperforms the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels, with its 3rd-grade students scoring significantly higher than the state average. The school also stands out for its strong performance among Hispanic and low-income students, ranking 14th and 253rd out of Oregon elementary schools in these subgroups, respectively. Additionally, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student compared to nearby schools, suggesting it may have additional resources and strategies in place to support student learning.

While St Paul Elementary School has maintained a consistent level of academic performance, with its statewide ranking remaining in the top half of Oregon elementary schools for the past several years, there is still room for improvement, particularly in the areas of 5th and 6th-grade Mathematics proficiency, which are below the state average. Overall, the school's strong academic performance, effective support for diverse learners, and favorable student-teacher ratio and spending per student make it a standout option for families in the Saint Paul area.

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.
