Malin Elementary School's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 275 out of 706 Oregon elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 313 out of 710 in 2023-2024, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. Student performance on state assessments is mixed, with 3rd grade students scoring below the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics, but 4th-6th grade students performing better in those subjects. In Science, 5th grade students at Malin Elementary scored higher than the district and state averages. The school has a high percentage of students (77.87%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage, and spending per student is higher than the district and state averages.
Despite the lower academic performance in some areas, Malin Elementary School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.9, which could be an advantage in providing more individualized attention and support for students. The higher spending per student may indicate that the district is investing resources to support the school, but the academic results suggest that these investments may not be fully translating into improved student outcomes. Further analysis and targeted interventions may be needed to help the school improve student performance and better serve the needs of its economically disadvantaged population.
