Best Public Schools in Zip Code 97222


Summary:

The 97222 zip code area in North Clackamas, Oregon is home to 10 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools, all part of the North Clackamas School District 12. While the district is ranked 54 out of 140 in Oregon, the schools in this area show a wide range of academic performance, with some standouts and others underperforming.

The Milwaukie Academy of the Arts, a public charter high school, consistently ranks among the top high schools in Oregon, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and significantly higher test scores than the district and state averages. Similarly, Sojourner School, an elementary school, also boasts a 4-star rating and exceptional test scores, ranking 65th out of 706 Oregon elementary schools. In contrast, schools like Whitcomb Elementary and Lewelling Elementary perform significantly below the district and state averages.

The data reveals a potential correlation between socioeconomic status, as measured by free and reduced-price lunch rates, and academic performance, with the highest-performing schools generally having lower rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. However, the relationship between funding and student outcomes is more complex, as schools with higher per-student spending do not necessarily have the highest academic performance, suggesting that factors beyond just funding, such as teaching quality, curriculum, and school leadership, may play a significant role in student success.
