Summary:

The McMinnville School District 40 in Oregon consists of 9 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 33 out of 140 school districts in the state and is rated 4 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

Within the district, a few schools stand out. Memorial Elementary School ranks 67th out of 710 elementary schools in Oregon and has a 5-star rating, with strong test scores. Duniway Middle School ranks 40th out of 371 middle schools in the state and has a 4-star rating, also with impressive test scores. As the only high school in the district, McMinnville High School ranks 82nd out of 268 high schools in Oregon and has a 3-star rating, with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 81.8%.

The district generally outperforms the state average on standardized tests, but there are some areas of concern. The chronic absenteeism rate across all schools is consistently high at 34.3%. Additionally, there is significant variation in the free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 37.92% at Memorial Elementary to 67.04% at Willamette Elementary, suggesting potential equity issues that the district may want to examine further.
