Summary:
The Gladstone School District 115 in Oregon is home to two elementary schools: John Wetten Elementary School and Gladstone Center for Children and Families. While both schools serve the Gladstone community, they exhibit distinct characteristics and performance metrics.
John Wetten Elementary School stands out as the larger of the two, with 588 students, and consistently outperforms the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades. The school also has a lower chronic absenteeism rate of 34.3% compared to the district average, and a higher spending per student at $19,415.
In contrast, Gladstone Center for Children and Families serves a significantly smaller student population of 97 and has a notably higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 90.72%. However, the school boasts a lower student-teacher ratio of 10.7, which may provide more individualized attention for its students. While the academic performance data is not as strong as John Wetten Elementary School, the Gladstone Center for Children and Families plays an important role in early childhood education (PK-KG) within the Gladstone School District 115.
