Summary:
Nellie Muir Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Woodburn, Oregon, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 435 students. Unfortunately, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Oregon elementary schools over the past decade, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating very poor performance compared to other schools in the state.
Nellie Muir Elementary School's academic performance is significantly lower than the state and district averages. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 8.6% of 3rd graders, 12% of 4th graders, and 28.2% of 5th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 39%, 41.9%, and 46.9%, respectively. The school's performance in Mathematics is also very low, with only 6% of 3rd graders and 16.9% of 5th graders proficient or better, compared to the state averages of 39.9% and 31.4%. The school's performance on student subgroups, such as female, male, Hispanic, English Language Learners, and students with Special Education needs, is also concerning, ranking in the bottom 10-20% or 50% of Oregon elementary schools.
Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Lincoln Elementary, Heritage Elementary, and Woodburn Arthur Academy, also perform poorly compared to the state averages, but they generally outperform Nellie Muir Elementary School across various academic metrics. The high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at Nellie Muir Elementary School (around 72% in recent years) suggests that the school serves a predominantly low-income student population, which may contribute to the academic challenges. Addressing the needs of this student population could be crucial for improving the school's performance.
