Best Public Schools in Zip Code 97040

Summary:

The 97040 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Mosier Community School, which serves grades K-8 and has a total enrollment of 173 students. The school is a public charter under the North Wasco County School District 21, which is ranked 111 out of 140 districts in Oregon and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mosier Community School's academic performance has been inconsistent, with some grades performing above the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics, while others are significantly below. The school's statewide ranking for elementary schools has declined over the past three years, from 343 out of 706 in 2021-2022 to 426 out of 710 in 2023-2024, with a corresponding decrease in its SchoolDigger star rating from 3 to 2 stars. The school's student-teacher ratio of 11.5 to 1 is relatively high, and its spending of $6,187 per student is lower than the national average, which may be contributing factors to its academic performance.

Despite these challenges, Mosier Community School serves a population with a relatively high level of economic disadvantage, with over 31% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Further investigation into the school's specific strategies, programs, and challenges would be needed to better understand the factors contributing to its performance and identify opportunities for improvement.
