As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Open Quote We had to pull our child from kindergarten at Manzanita. Our child was not stimulated educationally, and Ms. Davey told me she had no option for our daughter stating she had to "teach to the majority." They never tested her for TAG. My daughter hated going to school every day. She said her teacher was grumpy and never smiled. Not an environment we wanted to our 5 year old to be in. Ms. Davey told me that she did not want parents to volunteer in her class because she was very triple A. The principal got involved and eventually let me volunteer. I would describe the classroom as very "militant."

In addition, after reviewing the "porn literacy", sexual education curriculum for K-12, & CRT/identity politics-oriented material we have concluded that our Oregon public education system is no longer fostering an education based on principles and values but rather fosters an indoctrination of our children.

We moved our daughter to a private school, and she is flourishing academically and LOVES going to school every day. We definitely made the right decision. Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
