Summary

East Gresham Elementary School is a K–5 school at 900 SE 5th St in Gresham, Oregon, enrolling 571 students in the Gresham-Barlow School District 10J, making it one of the larger elementaries in the immediate area. Its most recent SchoolDigger rank is 554th of 709 Oregon elementary schools for 2025–2026, placing it in the 22nd percentile with 1 star, within a district that ranks 114th of 141 Oregon districts. The school’s rank has improved from the 4th–9th percentile in the mid-2010s and 2018–2019, though it has slipped from the 32nd–34th percentile in 2021–2023 to 22nd now.

In 2025–2026 OSAS all-grade tests, East Gresham was at the district average in English language arts (32.5% vs. 32.3%) but below the state’s 43.8%; in math, it outperformed the district (24.9% vs. 19.9%) and was the strongest among nearby traditional Gresham-Barlow elementaries such as Hogan Cedars, Kelly Creek, Powell Valley, North Gresham, Highland, Hollydale, and Hall. Science was weaker at 15.9%, below the district’s 19.0% and the state’s 30.6%. Grade-level results show 3rd-grade ELA at 22.7% (below district and state), while 4th- and 5th-grade ELA were above district but below state. Attendance is a clear strength: chronic absenteeism fell from 40.5% in 2022–2023 to 27.2% in 2024–2025, better than the district’s 40.3% and the state’s 33.5%.

East Gresham serves a high-poverty population: 82.84% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025. Its per-student spending was $17,601, the lowest among traditional same-district nearby elementaries, with a 19.0 student-teacher ratio. Subgroup effectiveness is mixed, with lower relative results for low-income, special education, and English learner students in recent data. Nearby Gresham Arthur Academy and Lupine Community Montessori Charter School post different results as charters, including much higher proficiency at Gresham Arthur Academy. Overall, East Gresham performs comparatively well against nearby traditional district schools, especially in math and attendance, but still trails state proficiency and has notable weaknesses in 3rd-grade ELA, 5th-grade science, and some subgroup outcomes.
