Summary:
The city of Maupin, Oregon is home to two schools: Maupin Elementary School and South Wasco County High School, both part of the South Wasco County School District 1. These schools serve a diverse student population, with a significant percentage of economically disadvantaged students.
Maupin Elementary School stands out for its relatively high proficiency rates in English Language Arts, particularly in grades 3 and 5, as well as strong performance in Mathematics for grade 3. However, the school also has a high percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients, indicating a low-income student population. In contrast, South Wasco County High School impresses with its exceptional 11th-grade ELA proficiency rates, which are significantly higher than the district and state averages. The high school also serves a high-need student population, with 88.39% of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
Both schools invest heavily in their students, with Maupin Elementary School spending $24,010 per student and South Wasco County High School spending $27,627 per student. These figures are notably higher than the state average, suggesting a commitment to providing quality education. However, the varying student outcomes across different subject areas and grade levels indicate that the effectiveness of this spending may need further examination. Additionally, the relatively low student-teacher ratios at both schools, 11.3 and 12.8, respectively, could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention and support for students.
