Summary

Crooked River Elementary School is a K–5 public school in Prineville, Oregon, serving 553 students — the largest elementary enrollment in its immediate area — as part of the Crook County School District. For 2025–2026 it ranks 186th of 709 Oregon elementary schools, placing it in the 74th percentile with 4 stars. That is a genuine climb: the school sat at the 53rd percentile in 2023–2024 and the 43rd percentile a decade ago, so the last two years are its strongest sustained showing on record.

Test scores are the headline. About 52.8% of students met the math standard, well above the district's 40.9% and the state's 32.9%, and Crooked River is the only school in its comparison group where math proficiency (52.8%) exceeds reading proficiency (50.2%). Its lowest-income students rank in the 92nd percentile statewide — higher than the school as a whole — a notable result at a school where roughly 80% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. Chronic absenteeism has fallen from 41.1% in 2021–2022 to 23.6%, now below both district and state rates.

Comparisons with nearby schools are revealing. Steins Pillar Elementary edges Crooked River in reading and attendance but trails in math and science, while Barnes Butte Elementary, the closest match in size, trails in every tested subject despite spending $1,549 more per student. Elementary schools in Redmond School District 2J within about 18 miles rank between the 31st and 69th percentiles. Science (32.9%) is Crooked River's relative weak spot, and fourth-grade reading (42.5%) is its one result just under the state average; Tom McCall Elementary School outperforms it in science (47.0%).
