Summary

Mountain View Academy is a small K–8 school serving 138 students in Lowell, Oregon, part of Lowell School District 71. It ranked 284th of 709 Oregon schools in 2025–2026 (60th percentile, 3 stars), following a stronger 4-star year in 2024–2025 when it placed 191st of 706 (73rd percentile). Earlier years were mostly 3-star results, so the school's overall profile is mid-to-upper and fairly stable.

In the core tested subjects, Mountain View students outperform both the district and the state. In 2025–2026, English language arts proficiency was 52.2% (district 44.7%, state 43.8%) and math was 35.9% (district 30.7%, state 32.9%). Science is the clear weak spot at 21.4%, below the district's 25.3% and the state's 30.6%. Among nearby schools, ELA trails Thurston Elementary School (62.0%), Douglas Gardens Elementary School (60.3%), and same-district Lundy Elementary School (54.5%), but leads Pleasant Hill Elementary School (49.3%) and Riverbend Elementary School (28.4%). By grade, 4th grade is strong in both ELA (60%) and math (53.3%), and 7th-grade ELA is 64.7%. The largest gaps are 5th-grade math (26.7% vs. the state's 32.4%) and 8th-grade science (15.4% vs. the state's 27.7%).

Attendance is a relative strength: chronic absenteeism was 24.8% in 2024–2025, below the district's 32.0% and the state's 33.5%, with only Pleasant Hill (20.3%) and Thurston (20.9%) better nearby. Reported per-student spending of $3,430 is dramatically lower than every nearby school, which report roughly $17,000 to $24,000 — a gap that may reflect differences in how spending is counted, so it should be verified before drawing conclusions. The free/reduced-lunch rate also jumped from about 26.6% to 69.57% in a single year. Because enrollment is small, year-to-year percentages can swing, so watch trends across several years rather than a single cohort.
