Summary

Culver Elementary School is a small K–5 school serving 262 students in the rural Central Oregon town of Culver, part of Culver School District 4. The district ranks 115th of 141 Oregon districts (18th percentile, 1 star), and the school itself ranked 466th of 709 Oregon elementary schools in 2025–2026 — 34th percentile, 2 stars. That is its lowest rank in the available history, down from 50th percentile (3 stars) in 2024–2025. Earlier years were stronger, reaching the 69th percentile in 2014–2015.

Academically, results are mixed. In 2025–2026, 40.3% of students met standards in English language arts, 26.1% in math, and 23.1% in science — all below state averages of 43.8%, 32.9%, and 30.6%, but above the district's math and science figures. The biggest gaps appear in 4th-grade math (25.0% proficient vs. 38.9% statewide) and 5th-grade ELA (38.5% vs. 47.1%), while 3rd-grade ELA is essentially at the state average. Among nearby schools, Culver outperforms Hugh Hartman Elementary, Madras Elementary School, and Warm Springs K-8 Academy, but trails Tom McCall Elementary School, John Tuck Elementary School, Terrebonne Community School, Buff Elementary School, M A Lynch Elementary School, and Metolius Elementary School.

Attendance is a bright spot: chronic absenteeism was 24.6% in 2024–2025, better than the district (28.3%) and the state (33.5%). About 69.85% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch — lower than every nearby school with reported data. Per-student spending is $18,838, and the student-teacher ratio improved from 17.2 to 15.8. Effectiveness across student groups is uneven: Hispanic students have ranked in the 54th–74th percentile recently, while low-socioeconomic-status students fell from the 68th–70th percentile to the 40th, and female students dropped from the 58th to the 32nd. Some very small nearby schools, such as 509J On-Line, have suppressed or bounded scores, so those comparisons are directional.
