Summary

McCornack Elementary School is a public elementary school in Eugene, Oregon, serving students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Eugene School District 4J, which is ranked 20 out of 140 districts in the state.

While McCornack Elementary has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, it currently ranks 487 out of 706 Oregon elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school faces significant challenges, including student performance that lags behind district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Additionally, McCornack has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 28.6% to 38.7% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages.

Interestingly, McCornack's performance is generally lower than nearby schools within the Eugene School District 4J, such as Village School, River Road/Elementary Camino del Rio Elementary School, and Camas Ridge Community Elementary. These nearby schools tend to have higher student performance, lower chronic absenteeism rates, and a lower percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Despite the relatively high spending per student at McCornack, the school has a higher student-teacher ratio compared to some of the nearby schools, which may impact the level of individual attention and support students receive.

Open Quote Do yourself a favor and find another school... classes are so big that teachers didn't notice bullying in the classroom Close Quote

Open Quote I have one child who has left McCornack to go to middle school and one child who still attends. The school's test rankings have been in a slide since they lost their principle after the 08 school year. The staff attitude declined after he left, my childs attitude toward school changed as well as the new principle replaced teachers and brought in new priorities and curriculum. The decline in education is very noticeable as a parent. My child who still attends McCornack is getting an A equivalent in the fast math class as a 5th grader and can barely perform basic addition and multiplication. McCornack is fine as long as you plan on hiring a tutor to supplement your child's education. Given a do-over I would choose another elementary school. Close Quote
