Summary

McKinley Elementary School is a public elementary school in Beaverton, Oregon, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 656 students. While the school is part of the highly-ranked Beaverton School District 48J, McKinley Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to both district and state averages across a range of key metrics.

McKinley Elementary has ranked in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools over the past decade and maintains a 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are significantly lower than the district and state averages, with only around 25% of students meeting or exceeding standards in these subjects. Additionally, McKinley has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 28% to 40% in recent years, which may be contributing to the lower academic performance.

Interestingly, the nearby Oak Hills Elementary and other schools in the Beaverton district, as well as schools in the neighboring Hillsboro School District, generally outperform McKinley Elementary across various metrics. For example, Oak Hills Elementary ranks in the top 12% of Oregon elementary schools and has proficiency rates that are 30-40 percentage points higher than McKinley in core academic areas. While the reasons for these performance differences are complex, the data suggests that McKinley Elementary may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the challenges it faces and improve student outcomes.
