Summary
Cooper Mountain Elementary School is a K–5 school at 7670 SW 170th Ave in Beaverton, Oregon, serving 384 students in Beaverton School District 48J, a district that ranks 19th of 141 Oregon districts. For 2025-2026 the school ranks 216th of 709 Oregon elementary schools — 70th percentile, 3 stars — after placing 121st of 706 (83rd percentile, 4 stars) the year before and 146th of 710 (79th percentile) the year before that. It spent most of the past decade in the 80th–90th percentile band, peaking at 72nd of 706 in 2014-2015, so this sustained drift below the 80th percentile is new.
Attendance is the standout strength. Chronic absenteeism is 14.7% — less than half the district's 28.7% and the state's 33.5%, and the second-lowest among nearby schools behind only Sexton Mountain Elementary School at 11.0%, compared with Kinnaman Elementary School at 39.1%. The school also serves its highest-need students well: special education students ranked at the 77th percentile in 2025-2026, above the school's own overall standing, and low-SES students reached the 82nd percentile in 2022-2023. It achieves this on $20,613 per student — below the roughly $21,800 peer average — and a 17.8:1 student–teacher ratio, the second-highest locally. Hiteon Elementary School, the strongest nearby benchmark at 82nd percentile, spends less ($20,044) with a similarly high ratio, while the area's highest-spending school, Kinnaman ($25,833), ranks lowest.
Math and science are the clearest gaps. The school beats the state in all three tested subjects and beats the district in ELA (55.9% versus 53.4%), but trails the district in math at every grade and in science (35.2% versus 41.2%). Its ELA-minus-math gap of 14.4 points is wider than the district's 9.7 points, and Sexton Mountain — its closest demographic match — outperforms it in every tested subject. Asian students rank between the 26th and 46th percentile across three years, a persistent outlier against the school's overall standing. The 2025-2026 decline spanned nearly every subgroup, and a 2024-2025 absenteeism uptick from 12.1% to 14.7% lines up with it, making attendance the most actionable path back toward the school's former standing.
