Summary

Letitia Carson Elementary School is a K–5 neighborhood school in Corvallis, Oregon, serving about 333 students as part of Corvallis School District 509J, and it is currently on its strongest run in a decade. In 2025–26 it ranked 196th of 709 Oregon elementary schools — the 72nd percentile, 4 stars — up from the 41st percentile in 2022–23. Chronic absenteeism has fallen to 23.4%, better than the district's 30.2% and the state's 33.5%.

Math is the clearest strength. At 54.1% proficient, the school sits 10.5 points above its district (43.6%) and 21.2 points above the state (32.9%), and it posts the highest math score among its closest Corvallis peers — Garfield Elementary School, Kathryn Jones Harrison Elementary School, Mt View Elementary School, Adams Elementary School and Lincoln Elementary School. Third-grade math is especially strong at 68.9%, and students from low-income families rank in the 85th percentile of Oregon schools (4 stars), a standout result. Money and class size don't explain the nearby differences: Harrison spends more ($22,854 per student) with smaller classes (12.1:1) yet scores lower in math.

Two areas need attention. Science is the weak spot at 26.9% proficient, against 43.4% district-wide and 30.6% statewide. The fifth grade carries most of that gap — 43.1% in English language arts, 33.3% in math and 26.9% in science — the lowest ELA figure among the same-district K–5 peers named above. Families may want to ask how science is taught and how fifth graders are prepared for middle school. About 57% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, essentially the same as every neighboring school, so these results reflect the school's own practice rather than its student population. Overall, this is a school in genuine ascent with a few specific, identifiable gaps.
