Summary

Silver Rail Elementary School is a K–5 school in Bend, Oregon, with 457 students, part of Bend-LaPine Administrative School District 1. Statewide, it ranks 118th of 709 Oregon elementary schools (83rd percentile, 4 stars) in 2025-2026 — its best showing since 2021-2022 and a rebound from the low-to-mid 70s percentiles of the previous two years. Test scores beat both district and state in all three subjects: 60.3% in English language arts (vs. 53.0% district, 43.8% state), 55.0% in math (43.5%, 32.9%) and 42.2% in science (33.7%, 30.6%). Chronic absenteeism is 19.3%, far below the 34.2% district and 33.5% state rates, and down sharply from 39.0% in 2021-2022.

Among low-income students, the school stands out: 23rd of 521 schools statewide (96th percentile, 5 stars) in 2025-2026, a higher relative standing than the school earns overall, and 85th percentile the year before. It also spends the least per student ($15,759) of any school in its comparison group. Against nearby schools, Silver Rail outperforms R E Jewell Elementary School (0.9 miles away) by roughly 25 points in ELA and 24 in math, and beats Elk Meadow Elementary School — which matches it almost exactly in enrollment and free/reduced-lunch rate — by 13.3 points in ELA, 9.0 in math and 16.8 in science.

Two areas are worth watching. Science is the relative soft spot: still above district and state, but 7th of 9 among nearby schools with similar free/reduced-lunch rates — though science is tested only in 5th grade, so this may be one cohort's result. Fourth grade sits essentially at the district line in both reading and math, while 3rd-grade math (67.1% vs. 53.1% district) and 5th-grade ELA (72.9% vs. 60.6%) are the clearest strengths. Some neighbors score higher overall, including Highland School at Kenwood Elementary School (97th percentile) and High Lakes Elementary School (94th), but the district-wide spread is wide, from Ensworth Elementary School at the 20th percentile to Highland at the 97th.
