Summary:
The 97116 zip code area in Oregon is home to 8 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school, all part of the Forest Grove School District 15. While the district as a whole is ranked 90 out of 140 in Oregon and has a 2-star rating, a few standout schools in the area are outperforming the district and state averages.
Dilley Elementary School and Forest Grove Community School are two of the highest-performing schools in the area, with significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the district and state. Harvey Clarke Elementary School also outperforms the district and state averages in these subjects.
However, the data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the schools in the 97116 zip code. Schools with higher rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, such as Fern Hill Elementary School and Joseph Gale Elementary School, tend to have the lowest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. This suggests a strong correlation between socioeconomic status and student achievement, which is an area that warrants further investigation and targeted interventions to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the district.
