Summary:
Oakland School District 1 in Oregon has only one middle school, Lincoln Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The data suggests that Lincoln Middle School faces some challenges in terms of academic performance, particularly in core subject areas, and serves a student population with a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.
Lincoln Middle School's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the past few years, ranging from 125th out of 371 Oregon middle schools in 2023-2024 to 165th out of 380 in 2022-2023. The school's performance on standardized tests, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics, is generally below the state average, with some exceptions in 7th and 8th grade ELA. The school's science proficiency rates are also below the state average.
Despite the school's lower academic performance, it has a higher spending per student and a slightly higher student-teacher ratio compared to the state average. This could indicate a need to evaluate the effectiveness of resource allocation and explore ways to optimize the use of available resources to improve student outcomes. Additionally, the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (56.5%) suggests that Lincoln Middle School serves a population with a higher proportion of students from low-income families, which could have implications for the school's support services and strategies to address the unique needs of this student population.
