Summary:
Estacada, Oregon has a single middle school serving grades 6–8: Estacada Middle School, with 460 students, part of Estacada School District 108. Because it is the only middle school in the city, families here have one option, and the school's data tells a story worth understanding in full.
One of the most striking things in the data is the contrast between the district and the school. Estacada School District 108 is ranked 36th of 141 districts in Oregon, at the 74th percentile with 4 stars, while Estacada Middle School is ranked 281st of 371 schools in 2025–2026 — the 24th percentile, with 1 star. That places the school in the bottom quartile, and it has stayed there for three years: the 21st percentile in 2023–2024, 20th in 2024–2025, and 24th in 2025–2026. Proficiency rates are below both district and state averages in every reported subject. In English language arts, 30% of students met the standard, compared with 45.2% districtwide and 43.8% statewide. In math, 20.8% met the standard, versus 31.7% in the district and 32.9% in the state. In science, 19.7% met the standard, versus 36.6% districtwide and 30.6% statewide.
Eighth grade is the relative bright spot: 38.7% proficient in ELA and 26.9% in math, both within about three points of the state average. Seventh grade is the weakest level, with 23.9% in ELA and 17.5% in math — the largest gaps in the data. Beyond test scores, chronic absenteeism is 35.1%, slightly above the district's 34.9% and the state's 33.5%. Just over half of students (51.52%) qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, per-student spending is $14,939, and the student-teacher ratio is 23.1.
