Summary

Central Linn Elementary School is a public elementary school in Halsey, Oregon, serving 264 students in grades K-6 as part of the Central Linn School District. While the school spends a relatively high amount per student and has a low student-to-teacher ratio, it has consistently underperformed the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science proficiency across all grade levels.

Central Linn Elementary School faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates and a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Compared to nearby schools like Sand Ridge Charter School, Cascades School, and Green Acres School, Central Linn Elementary consistently underperforms in student achievement. However, the school's performance for special education students is a bright spot, with the school ranking in the top 5% of Oregon elementary schools in 2018-2019.

Over the past few years, Central Linn Elementary School's statewide ranking has declined, from 192 out of 701 Oregon elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 442 out of 706 in 2024-2025. This suggests the need for the school to implement more effective instructional strategies and support systems to improve student learning and engagement, particularly for its general education population.
