Central Linn School District 552

The Central Linn School District 552 in Oregon consists of two schools: Central Linn High School and Central Linn Elementary School. The district serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at both schools.

Central Linn High School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from 32nd out of 268 Oregon high schools in 2023-2024 to 229th out of 258 in 2022-2023. The school's performance on state assessments is mixed, with 11th-grade students performing above the state average in English Language Arts but below average in Mathematics and Science. Central Linn Elementary School, on the other hand, has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools, with a ranking between 400th and 442nd out of 706-710 schools over the past three years. The elementary school's performance on state assessments is also mixed, with 3rd and 5th-grade students performing above the state average in English Language Arts but below average in Mathematics and Science.

Both schools in the Central Linn School District 552 have relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, with 34.3% of students chronically absent in 2023-2024. This is a concerning issue that may be impacting student learning and academic achievement across the district. The district's overall ranking of 77th out of 140 in Oregon and its 2-star rating from SchoolDigger suggest that there may be broader equity issues within the district that need to be addressed.
