Central Point School District 6

The Central Point School District 6 in Oregon encompasses 11 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 3 high schools, serving students from diverse backgrounds. The district's performance varies, with standout schools like Crater School of Business Innovation and Science leading the way, while other schools face challenges in meeting state averages.

The Crater School of Business Innovation and Science stands out as the top-performing high school in the district, ranking 15th out of 258 Oregon high schools and earning a 5-star rating. In contrast, the other two high schools, Crater Academy of Health and Public Services and Crater Renaissance Academy, perform below the state average. At the elementary and middle school levels, the majority of the schools in the district also struggle to meet state proficiency standards, suggesting a need for improvement in the earlier grades.

The district's schools also vary in terms of student demographics, free/reduced lunch rates, spending per student, and student-teacher ratios. While the school with the highest spending per student, Hanby Middle School, has the highest student-teacher ratio and one of the lower performance levels, the school with the lowest spending per student, Richardson Elementary, has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and better performance. This suggests a need to examine the factors contributing to the performance disparities and address potential equity concerns, particularly for schools with high free/reduced lunch rates.
