Summary

Parkrose Middle School is a grades 6–8 middle school serving 618 students in the Parkrose area of Portland, Oregon, part of Parkrose School District 3, which ranks 136th of 141 Oregon districts (4th percentile). In 2025–2026 the school ranked 313th of 371 middle schools statewide (16th percentile, 1 star), down from a pre-pandemic peak of 229th of 379 (40th percentile, 2 stars) in 2018–2019, and it has held 1 star in each of the last four reported years. Nearby Portland School District 1J ranks far higher (91st percentile).

Achievement is well below state averages. In 2025–2026, 29.8% of students met standards in English language arts (vs 43.8% statewide), 14.6% in math (vs 32.9%), and 10.3% in science (vs 30.6%). Parkrose is slightly above its district in ELA but below it in math and science. Sixth grade ELA (40.9%) is close to the state average (41.8%), but scores drop sharply after that: 7th grade ELA is 24.5% and 8th grade 21.3%. Math is low in every grade, and science is especially weak. Nearby Kellogg Middle School — the lowest-performing local school from Portland School District 1J — still reports 40.2% ELA, 30.9% math, and 19.7% science. Parkrose does outperform some nearby high-poverty schools, including Reynolds Middle School and Hauton B Lee Middle School, in ELA and math.

Chronic absenteeism is a major challenge: 47.9% in 2024–2025, versus 33.5% statewide and about 22–24% at Mt Tabor Middle School, Beaumont Middle School, and Harrison Park School. Roseway Heights School has similar absenteeism (45.8%) but much higher achievement, so attendance alone does not explain the gap. Spending rose to $19,276 per student in 2024–2025, lower than most nearby schools, and the student-teacher ratio improved to 17.8. Results for student subgroups are mostly in the bottom fifth of the state. One caveat: the 2024–2025 free/reduced-lunch figure of 128.8% is not a valid percentage and should be read only as a sign of high economic need.
