Summary
Riverview School is a K–5 elementary school in Lebanon, OR, serving 423 students in Lebanon Community School District 9 and standing as the largest elementary among its nearby comparison schools. In 2025–2026 it ranked 370th of 709 Oregon schools — the 48th percentile, at 2 stars. That reflects a slide from 65th percentile (3 stars) in 2022–2023 and, before that, a steep climb from 29th percentile (1 star) in 2018–2019. Most students come from low-income families: 87.71% received free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025.
Academically, Riverview School is mid-pack overall but above its district in every subject. On 2025–2026 state tests, 42.7% of students met standards in English language arts, 34.2% in math, and 26.8% in science — all above Lebanon Community School District 9 averages, with math also above the state average, ELA just below it, and science below it. Grade levels differ notably: 3rd grade is a strength (ELA 47.1%, math 46.3%), 4th grade is weaker (34.1% in both), and 5th grade splits sharply, with ELA at 48.6% but math at only 22.9%. Nearby, Sand Ridge Charter School (86th percentile) and Sweet Home Charter School (84th) lead the area, while Riverview School outperforms Green Acres School, Hamilton Creek School, Lacomb School, and Periwinkle Elementary School in ELA and math.
Subgroup results vary widely. Statewide peer comparisons place Riverview School in the 82nd percentile for Hispanic students and 83rd for low-income students (both 4 stars), and 61st for students in special education — a large improvement from the 17th percentile in 2023–2024 — while female students (39th) and White students (36th) rank below the school's overall 48th percentile. Chronic absenteeism is the most pressing concern: 38.1% in 2024–2025, above Oregon's 33.5% and higher than most nearby schools, and up from 30.9% a year earlier. Riverview also spends less per student ($16,525) and has a bigger student–teacher ratio (20.7) than most nearby traditional schools, yet still outperforms several of them — suggesting efficient use of resources, but also raising questions about whether more support could help reverse the recent decline.
