Summary

Mulino Elementary School is a K–5 school in Mulino, Oregon, a small community in Clackamas County, serving 204 students as one of four elementary schools in the Molalla River School District 35.

Ranked 399th of 709 Oregon elementary schools (44th percentile, 2 stars), Mulino performs noticeably better than its district, which sits in the bottom third of the state. The school beats its district by 8.4 points in English language arts and 11.9 points in math, and it edges slightly above the state average in math. The standout result is 3rd grade math: 56.5% of students met the standard, more than 15 points above the state and the best of any nearby school — ahead of Carus School, Rural Dell Elementary School, and Clarkes Elementary School, the district's highest-ranked school. Attendance is the quiet win: chronic absenteeism of 27.9% is below both district and state, has improved two years running, and is the best of any Molalla River elementary. Mulino also serves its low-income students relatively well — they rank in the 53rd percentile, above the school as a whole.

The main concerns sit in the upper grades. Results drop from 3rd to 5th grade in every subject while state averages rise; by 5th grade, Mulino is roughly 11–12 points below the state in all three subjects and about level with its own district. Science is the weakest subject overall, at 20.0% proficiency — 10.6 points below the state. There is also a new gap to watch: female students fell from the 46th to the 21st percentile in a single year, opening a wide gap with male students. Mulino spends $17,353 per student, less than most nearby schools, with a 17:1 student–teacher ratio, yet still outperforms Molalla Elementary School, which serves similar poverty levels. Overall, this is a durable middle-of-the-pack school with real strengths in early math and attendance, and clear room to grow in the upper grades.
