Summary

Mountain View Middle School is a public middle school located in Newberg, Oregon, serving 498 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Newberg School District 29J, which is ranked 21 out of 140 school districts in Oregon and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Mountain View Middle School has some areas of strength, it also faces several challenges. The school has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism rates, rising from 26.9% in 2021-2022 to 38.1% in 2022-2023, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages. Academically, the school's performance, as measured by OSAS test scores, is generally below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts ranged from 34.2% to 43.7%, compared to the district's 42.4% to 45.3% and the state's 41.6% to 44.2%. A similar pattern is observed in Mathematics and Science.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Chehalem Valley Middle School and Sherwood Middle School, Mountain View Middle School generally underperforms in terms of test scores and overall school ranking. Additionally, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Low Socioeconomic Status students struggling more than their peers. Despite the relatively high spending per student at Mountain View Middle School, the school's academic performance remains below the district and state averages, suggesting the need for a comprehensive review of the school's practices and the implementation of targeted interventions to address these issues and improve student outcomes.
