A few schools stand out in the Silverton area. Victor Point Elementary School consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and significantly higher test scores than the district and state averages. Similarly, Evergreen Elementary School, a small school with just 78 students, has been ranked among the top elementary schools in Oregon and also boasts exceptional test scores. Bethany Charter School has also performed well, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and test scores generally higher than the district and state averages.
While the district's overall performance is strong, with the majority of schools performing at or above the state average, there are some areas for improvement. The district's graduation rate at Silverton High School is slightly lower than the state average, and the chronic absenteeism rate across all schools is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, there is significant variation in test scores and other metrics between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing schools, suggesting opportunities for the district to learn from the practices and strategies of the high-performing schools.
