Summary

Elk Meadow Elementary School is a public elementary school in Bend, Oregon, serving 460 students in grades K-5. It is part of the Bend-LaPine Administrative School District 1, which is ranked 28 out of 140 school districts in Oregon and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Elk Meadow Elementary has shown mixed performance on state assessments compared to the district and state averages. While the school performs better than the state in some grade levels and subjects, it lags behind the district in most areas. For example, in 2024-2025, Elk Meadow's 3rd grade ELA proficiency was 48.7% compared to the district's 52.4% and the state's 40.3%. However, the school's 3rd grade math proficiency was 63.6%, outperforming both the district (52.4%) and the state (40.1%). Additionally, Elk Meadow has consistently higher chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 33.2% to 39.7% in recent years, which is concerning and may impact student learning and achievement.

Compared to nearby schools in the district, Elk Meadow's performance is mixed. Juniper Elementary and High Lakes Elementary consistently outperform Elk Meadow on state assessments and have lower chronic absenteeism rates. However, Elk Meadow outperforms schools like Bear Creek Elementary and R.E. Jewell Elementary on many metrics. Addressing the chronic absenteeism issue and focusing on improving academic outcomes could be key priorities for Elk Meadow Elementary School.
