Summary:
The 97524 zip code area is home to 7 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across these schools, with some standouts like Eagle Rock Elementary School and Crater Lake Academy leading the pack, while others like the URCEO-Upper Rogue Center for Educational Opportunities virtual high school struggle to keep up.
The student-teacher ratios vary widely, from 14.8 to 29.1 students per teacher, with the alternative and virtual schools having the highest ratios. Spending per student also differs significantly, ranging from $6,431 at Crater Lake Academy to $20,672 at the small Lake Creek Learning Center. Several schools have very high percentages of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, with rates as high as 77.95%.
The data suggests that the relationship between funding and academic outcomes is not straightforward, as the high-spending Lake Creek Learning Center has lower proficiency rates than the lower-spending Eagle Rock Elementary School. The challenges faced by alternative and virtual schools in the area, such as the URCEO-Upper Rogue Center for Educational Opportunities, also highlight the need for targeted interventions and support to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the Eagle Point School District 9.
