Summary

Haines Elementary School is a PK–6 school in Baker City, OR, serving about 140 students as part of Baker School District 5J. It has a strong recent record: in 2025–2026 it ranked 136th of 709 Oregon elementary schools (81st percentile, 4 stars); in 2024–2025 it ranked 76th of 706 (89th percentile, 4 stars); and in 2023–2024 it ranked 64th of 710 (91st percentile, 5 stars). That places it well above the district’s 70th percentile, though its 2025–2026 result is a slight slip from its 5-star 2023–2024 year.

In 2025–2026 OSAS testing, Haines Elementary School reported 65.3% proficient in English Language Arts and 55.6% in math across all grades, compared with district rates of 42.3% and 28.4% and state rates of 43.8% and 32.9%. The contrast with nearby Brooklyn Primary School is large: Brooklyn Primary School reported 16.5% in all-grades ELA and 16.5% in math, and 16.5% in both 3rd grade ELA and math, while Haines Elementary School reported 62.5% and 75% in 3rd grade. It serves grades 1–3 only, so comparisons outside 3rd grade are limited.

Science is the clear outlier: Haines Elementary School reported 22.2% proficient, below district and state benchmarks; 5th grade science was also 22.2%, below the district’s 28.9% and state’s 30.8%, and 5th grade math (33.3%) was only slightly above the state’s 32.4%. Chronic absenteeism was 26.5% in 2024–2025, better than the state’s 33.5% and nearby Brooklyn Primary School (34.2%) and Baker Early Learning Center (34.8%), but slightly above the district’s 26.1%. Keating Elementary School reported 7.1%, but with only 26 students that figure is less stable. Haines Elementary School also serves a high-poverty population—91.43% free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025—with a 15.3 student–teacher ratio and $16,590 per-student spending, and its low-income subgroup rankings have been strong in recent reported years.
