Summary:
Aloha, Oregon has five public elementary schools — Hazeldale Elementary School, Tobias Elementary School, Indian Hills Elementary School, Butternut Creek Elementary School, and Reedville Elementary School — serving pre-kindergarten and kindergarten through 5th or 6th grade. Together they enroll 1,756 students, averaging about 351 per school and ranging from 197 at Reedville to 477 at Hazeldale. Four are in Hillsboro School District 1J, and Hazeldale is the lone Aloha school in Beaverton School District 48J.
Indian Hills Elementary School is the clear standout, ranking 117 of 709 (83rd percentile, 4 stars) and improving steadily over three years. Its all-grade proficiency is 60.4% in ELA, 52.7% in math, and 36.0% in science, the only Aloha school above state averages in all three subjects. At the other end, Reedville Elementary School ranks 637 of 709 (10th percentile, 1 star), with ELA at 19%, math at 21%, and science at 19%; its rank has declined three years running. Butternut Creek Elementary School also earns 1 star (26th percentile). Hazeldale Elementary School sits at 37th percentile with 2 stars and trails its own district in every subject, including the lowest science score in the group at 18.6%. Tobias Elementary School is mid-low and stable (35th percentile, ELA 36.4%, math 26.5%, science 27.7%).
Across all five schools, averages of 37.4% in ELA, 30.9% in math, and 25.8% in science fall below Oregon's 43.8%, 32.9%, and 30.6%. Excluding Indian Hills, the other four average just 31.6% in ELA. All five schools have chronic absenteeism below the state's 33.5%, in a narrow 25.7% to 28.5% band, so attendance does not explain the wide proficiency gaps. Notably, Reedville has the highest per-student spending ($26,644) and the smallest classes (14.6 students per teacher) yet the lowest ELA and math results, while Indian Hills spends the least ($20,328) with the largest classes (19.8) and posts the best scores.
