Summary:
Dundee, Oregon is home to a single public school: Dundee Elementary School, a K–5 campus with 216 students at 140 SW 5th. It belongs to Newberg School District 29J. The data set lists no middle, high, or alternative schools in the city, so older students travel elsewhere in the district. With only one school, there is no local comparison to make; the useful yardsticks are the district and the state.
Dundee Elementary holds a 4-star rating and ranks 189th of 709 Oregon schools (73rd percentile) for 2025–26, roughly the top quarter of the state. It scores above both district and state averages in every all-grade subject: 51.4% in English language arts, 49.5% in math, and 38.5% in science. Math is the biggest strength — 16.6 points above the state — and 5th grade is the standout, with 64.1% ELA proficiency (47.1% statewide) and 51.3% in math (32.4% statewide). By contrast, 3rd- and 4th-grade ELA (44.1% and 44.4%) trail the district's 50.7% and 49.3%, though both still beat the state.
Chronic absenteeism is 24.6%, below the district's 29.4% and the state's 33.5% — a real strength, since missed days often drag down achievement. About 69% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, per-student spending is $21,732, and the student-teacher ratio is 13:1. The school's rank percentile has drifted from 78 to 74 to 73 over three years, still in the top quartile but worth watching. Grades are small (about 35–40 students), so a few students can shift a grade-level rate by several points. Science, at 38.5%, is the lowest absolute subject but still above the district's 35.0% and state's 30.6%.
