The schools in this area generally perform well on the Oregon Statewide Assessment System (OSAS) tests, with many schools having over 60% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. However, there is a wide range in the free and reduced lunch rates, from a low of 9.72% at Duniway Elementary to a high of 69.62% at Grout Elementary, suggesting a diverse range of socioeconomic backgrounds represented in the schools. The consistent spending per student across the schools, ranging from $28,026 to $30,092, indicates that funding alone does not determine academic outcomes, and other factors such as school leadership, teacher quality, and student demographics likely play a significant role.
