Summary

Parklane Elementary School is a public elementary school in Portland, Oregon, serving 437 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Centennial School District 28J, which is ranked 128 out of 140 school districts in the state.

Parklane Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Oregon elementary schools over the past decade, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger indicating it is performing significantly below the state average. The school faces significant challenges, including extremely high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 34.3% to 46.3%, and very low academic performance, with only 16.4% to 28.8% of students proficient in English Language Arts and Math. Parklane Elementary struggles to support the academic achievement of various student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 25-30% of Oregon elementary schools for female, male, Hispanic, and white student performance.

While Parklane Elementary has relatively high spending per student at $21,681, and a student-teacher ratio slightly lower than the state average, these factors do not appear to be driving the school's poor academic outcomes. Nearby schools in the David Douglas School District and Reynolds School District, such as Menlo Park Elementary and Arthur Academy, perform significantly better academically, suggesting that a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach is needed to address the root causes of Parklane Elementary's struggles.
