Summary:
The 97386 zip code area is home to 6 schools in the Sweet Home School District 55, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the district as a whole is ranked 89 out of 140 in Oregon and rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, a few schools stand out in the area.
Holley Elementary School and Sweet Home Charter School are the top-performing schools, ranking 330 and 286 out of 710 Oregon elementary schools, respectively, and both receiving a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. These schools have higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the district and state averages. In contrast, Sweet Home High School and Sweet Home Junior High School have significantly lower proficiency rates in core subjects, suggesting a need for targeted interventions to improve outcomes at the secondary level.
Across the district, all schools have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 67.89% to 97.83%, indicating a predominantly low-income population. Per-student spending also varies widely, from $6,656 at Sweet Home Charter School to $17,334 at Sweet Home High School, but this does not appear to directly correlate with academic performance, suggesting that other factors, such as resource allocation and teaching quality, may be more influential in driving student outcomes.
