Summary

Hamilton Creek School is a public elementary school serving grades K-8 in the Lebanon Community School District 9 in Lebanon, Oregon. With 260 students, the school faces significant challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, underperformance on standardized tests compared to the district and state, and struggles to effectively serve certain student subgroups.

Hamilton Creek School's academic performance is a concern, with test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics lagging behind the Lebanon Community School District 9 and the state of Oregon. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 41.2% of 3rd graders at Hamilton Creek were proficient in ELA, compared to 44.5% in the district and 40.3% statewide. The school also ranks in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools for female, male, and white student performance, as well as for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

While Hamilton Creek School spends a relatively high amount per student, ranging from $16,920 to $17,137, it underperforms compared to nearby schools like Lacomb School and Sand Ridge Charter School, which outperform Hamilton Creek on test scores and have higher statewide rankings. Additionally, Hamilton Creek has a higher student-teacher ratio than some nearby schools, which may contribute to the academic challenges the school faces.
