Summary

Redwood Elementary School is a public elementary school in Grants Pass, Oregon, serving 424 students in grades K-5 and part of the Grants Pass School District 7. The school has consistently performed above the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics for grades 3-5, with particular strengths in supporting Hispanic students and students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

Redwood Elementary School's 4th-grade proficiency rates in 2024-2025 were 46.8% in ELA and 43% in Mathematics, outpacing the district and state averages. The school's performance is generally on par with or slightly better than other Grants Pass elementary schools, but lags behind the higher-performing schools in the neighboring Three Rivers/Josephine County School District. However, the school faces a concerning trend of rising chronic absenteeism, which increased from 18.4% in 2022-2023 to 34.3% in 2023-2024, higher than the district and state averages.

While Redwood Elementary School's performance for Hispanic students and students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds is a positive indicator, the school's lower performance for White students and students with special needs suggests a need to examine and address any potential equity gaps within the school. Overall, Redwood Elementary School is a generally high-performing school within the Grants Pass district, but it faces challenges with chronic absenteeism and ensuring equitable outcomes for all student subgroups.
