Summary:
The Astoria School District 1 in Oregon serves students from four schools: two elementary schools (Astor Elementary and Lewis & Clark Elementary), one middle school (Astoria Middle School), and one high school (Astoria Senior High School). The district faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism and a significant population of students from low-income families, but there are also some standout schools within the district.
Astoria Senior High School stands out with relatively high 11th-grade proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics, exceeding the state averages. The school also has a high spending per student, which may contribute to its stronger academic performance. In contrast, Lewis & Clark Elementary School demonstrates impressive English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, particularly in the 3rd grade, compared to the district and state averages.
Despite the district's overall ranking of 56th out of 140 in Oregon and a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, the data reveals significant variation in the performance of individual schools. While the district faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism and socioeconomic factors, the higher spending per student at Astoria Senior High School and the lower student-teacher ratios at the elementary schools may be contributing to their relatively stronger academic performance.
