Summary

R E Jewell Elementary School is a K–5 school in Bend, Oregon, serving 421 students in the Bend-LaPine Administrative School District 1. The district as a whole ranks 34th of 141 Oregon districts (76th percentile, 4 stars), but R E Jewell's own 2025–2026 statewide rank is 467th of 709 (34th percentile, 2 stars). The school's rank history shows a recent decline: it sat around the 51st–68th percentile with mostly 3 stars from 2014–2015 through 2023–2024, dropped to 28th percentile and 1 star in 2024–2025, then partially recovered to 34th percentile and 2 stars in 2025–2026.

Test scores are below the district and state in most subjects. In 2025–2026, all-grade ELA proficiency was 34.7% (district 53.0%, state 43.8%), math 31.3% (district 43.5%, state 32.9%), and science 24.4% (district 33.7%, state 30.6%). Among nearby Bend schools, R E Jewell ranks above only Ensworth Elementary School (20th percentile) and Bear Creek Elementary School (27th percentile), and trails Elk Meadow Elementary School (62), Westside Village Magnet School at Kingston Elementary School (63), Silver Rail Elementary School (83), Juniper Elementary School (85), Amity Creek Elementary School (89), Pine Ridge Elementary (92), High Lakes Elementary School (94), and Highland School at Kenwood Elementary School (97). In ELA, R E Jewell's 34.7% is above only Ensworth (33.3%) and Bear Creek (32.4%), while High Lakes and Highland both exceed 75%.

Attendance is a relative bright spot: chronic absenteeism was 25.4%, better than the district (34.2%) and state (33.5%). Resources do not obviously explain the gap, since per-student spending ($16,278) and the student-teacher ratio (17.5) are similar to nearby schools that perform much higher. Subgroup effectiveness varies: the school ranked at the 7th percentile (0 stars) for English Language Learner students and 26th percentile (1 star) for male students in 2025–2026, while female students and low-SES students were around the 35th–41st percentile (2 stars). Overall, the school faces a school-level performance challenge, with instructional and subgroup-support effectiveness the most important areas to investigate.
