Summary

Culver Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 288 students in grades K-5 in Culver, Oregon. The school is part of the Culver School District 4, which is ranked 98 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Culver Elementary School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the past decade, ranging from a high of 117 out of 695 Oregon elementary schools in 2013-2014 to a low of 420 out of 705 in 2018-2019. The school's student performance on state assessments has been mixed, with 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students scoring below the state average in English Language Arts and Math, except for 5th grade Math. However, the school's Hispanic students have consistently outperformed their peers, ranking in the top 25% of Oregon elementary schools for this subgroup in recent years.

Culver Elementary School faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 31.2% to 38.1% over the past few years, and a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 68.75% to 69.66% in recent years. When compared to nearby schools in the Redmond School District 2J and Jefferson County School District 509J, Culver Elementary School generally performs below average, despite spending more per student than some of these schools. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rates should be a top priority for the school and district to improve student learning and engagement.
