Summary

Territorial Elementary School in Junction City, OR, is a small K–5 public school in Junction City School District 69 serving 132 students, making it the smallest school in its nearby comparison group. Its latest overall rank is 332 out of 709 Oregon elementary schools (53rd percentile, 3 stars) for 2025–26, while the district ranks 62 out of 141 (56th percentile, 3 stars). The school was in the 81st–87th percentile from 2014–15 through 2018–19 and reached 81st in 2022–23, but has since slipped to 63rd, 70th, and 53rd, so it is now roughly middle-of-the-pack statewide after earlier high rankings.

Attendance is the school’s clearest strength. Its chronic absenteeism rate was 14.3% in 2024–25, far below the district’s 34.4% and the state’s 33.5%, and lower than every nearby school, including Irving Elementary School (19.3%), Monroe Grade School (21.1%), and Elmira Elementary School (23.1%). In academics, all-grade math proficiency is 41.7%, above the district (28.5%) and state (32.9%); all-grade ELA is 43.3%, near the state (43.8%) and above the district (39.7%). The school is uneven by grade: 3rd-grade math (62.5%) and ELA (58.3%) are strong and above state averages, but 5th-grade math (22.2%), ELA (27.8%), and science (22.2%) are weaker, with science below the state. Because enrollment is only 132 students, a few students can shift these percentages significantly.

Comparisons are mixed. The school often outperforms nearby high-poverty schools in Bethel School District 52, such as Irving Elementary School, Prairie Mountain School, and Danebo Elementary School, in all-grade ELA, math, and attendance. Against same-district Laurel Elementary School, Laurel has higher all-grade math (46.2% vs. 41.7%) and a higher rank (61st vs. 53rd percentile), but the school has much lower chronic absenteeism (14.3% vs. 28.0%) and stronger 3rd-grade ELA and math. The school spends $19,684 per student, with a student-teacher ratio of 16.8. Overall, it offers exceptional attendance, solid math, near-state ELA, and a strong 3rd-grade cohort, while its main concerns are 5th-grade ELA/math, 5th-grade science, and a longer-term rank decline.
