Summary

Arleta Elementary School is a public elementary school in Portland, Oregon, serving 274 students in grades K-5. It is part of the Portland School District 1J, which is ranked 13th out of 140 districts in the state and has a 5-star rating.

Arleta Elementary School's student performance on standardized tests is generally higher than the state average but lower than the district average. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 3rd-grade English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rate was 50%, compared to the state average of 40.3% and the district average of 55.4%. In Mathematics, the school's 5th-grade proficiency rate was 51.9%, higher than the state average of 31.3% but lower than the district average of 48.7%. The school has shown strong performance in certain student subgroups, such as Special Education and Low Socioeconomic Status students, but has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates.

When compared to nearby schools within the same district, Kelly Elementary and Marysville Elementary, Arleta Elementary generally outperforms them in student academic achievement, particularly in ELA and Mathematics proficiency rates. However, it lags behind higher-performing schools like Richmond Elementary, Creston Elementary, and Lewis Elementary. The school's performance in serving Gifted and Talented students is relatively low, and its student-teacher ratio has increased in recent years, which could potentially impact the quality of instruction and student support.
