Summary:
The Yoncalla School District 32 in Oregon is home to two schools: Yoncalla Elementary School and Yoncalla High School. The district serves a community with a high level of economic disadvantage, as evidenced by the high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at both schools.
Yoncalla High School stands out with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 81.8%, which is above the state average. However, the district as a whole is ranked 101 out of 140 districts in Oregon and is rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger, indicating a relatively low-performing district. Yoncalla Elementary School has shown some improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 653rd out of 706 Oregon elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 579th out of 710 in 2023-2024, but its academic performance remains a concern, with low proficiency rates in English Language Arts and mathematics compared to state averages.
Both Yoncalla Elementary School and Yoncalla High School face challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates of 34.3%, which may be contributing to the overall academic performance issues. The district's low academic performance and high rates of economic disadvantage suggest a need for targeted interventions and additional resources to support student learning and address the unique needs of the community.
