Summary:
The city of Estacada, Oregon is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Estacada School District 108. While Estacada High School stands out with a 3-star rating and strong performance in English Language Arts and Science, the district faces challenges, particularly at the elementary and middle school levels.
River Mill Elementary School is the top-performing elementary school in the district, ranking 338 out of 706 Oregon elementary schools and outperforming the district and state averages in 5th-grade English Language Arts proficiency. In contrast, Clackamas River Elementary School lags behind, with lower proficiency rates and a 1-star rating. At the middle school level, Estacada Middle School consistently underperforms the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics.
A concerning issue across the district is the high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.3%, significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the elementary schools have higher free and reduced lunch rates, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, which may contribute to the disparities in academic performance. While Estacada High School stands out, the district as a whole faces challenges in addressing chronic absenteeism, equity, and improving academic achievement, particularly at the elementary and middle school levels.
