Summary

Shaver Elementary School is a public elementary school in Portland, Oregon, serving 282 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Parkrose School District 3, which is ranked 130 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Shaver Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools, with a ranking between 452 and 666 over the past 10 years and a 1- or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school faces significant challenges, including very high chronic absenteeism rates (ranging from 32.2% to 46.6%), consistently below-average test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, and disparities in subgroup performance, with the school ranking highly for its African American students but struggling with its Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Special Education populations.

While Shaver Elementary spends a relatively high amount per student ($16,944 to $17,712 in recent years), this does not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. The school's performance is generally lower than the nearby Russell Elementary and Sacramento Elementary schools, which have higher test scores, lower chronic absenteeism, and better overall rankings. Addressing these issues through targeted interventions and a focus on instructional quality, student support, and family engagement could be key to helping Shaver Elementary improve and better serve its community.
