Best Public Schools in Zip Code 97495

Summary:

The 97495 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Winchester Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 with 323 students. Winchester Elementary is part of the Douglas County School District 4, which is ranked 55 out of 140 school districts in Oregon and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Winchester Elementary is a low-performing school, with test scores significantly below the district and state averages across multiple grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 22% of 3rd graders at Winchester Elementary were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 39.9% for the district and 39% for the state. The school also serves a high-needs population, with 68.73% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite the low performance, Winchester Elementary spends a relatively high amount per student, $20,782 in 2021-2022, which is higher than the state average. The school's student-teacher ratio of 15.3 to 1 in 2022-2023 is slightly lower than the state average, but this does not appear to be translating into better academic results. Overall, the data suggests that Winchester Elementary is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students, and more targeted interventions and support may be needed to address the underlying issues contributing to the school's poor performance.
