Summary

Ocean Crest Elementary School is a public elementary school in Bandon, Oregon, serving 235 students in grades K-4. The school is part of the Bandon School District 54, which is ranked 16 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

While Ocean Crest Elementary has shown mixed performance on state assessments, with proficiency rates in ELA and math fluctuating and often lower than state averages, the school has performed exceptionally well for certain subgroups, such as Hispanic students and those from low-income families, often outperforming the state and district. However, the school faces a significant challenge with high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 34.3% to 45.5% in recent years, which is much higher than the state average. Compared to nearby schools, Ocean Crest generally performs better than Lighthouse Charter School and Myrtle Crest School in academic proficiency, but lags behind the higher-performing Coquille Valley Elementary.

Despite the challenges, Ocean Crest Elementary School has access to relatively high funding, spending between $17,237 and $17,405 per student, which is above the state average. This suggests the school has the resources to address the chronic absenteeism and improve overall academic performance, particularly by building on the success seen in certain student subgroups. With a focus on addressing attendance and continuing to support the needs of diverse learners, Ocean Crest Elementary can work towards better outcomes for all its students.
