Summary

Orchard Hill Elementary School is a K–5 school with 273 students on LaLoma Drive in Medford, Oregon — but it belongs to Phoenix-Talent School District 4, not the Medford School District 549C that runs eight of the nine nearby schools, and the two districts are not rated alike.

Despite sitting in a district ranked in the bottom third statewide, Orchard Hill performs close to the state average: 43.4% of students met English Language Arts standards and 31.9% met math standards — about six points above its own district in both subjects and within roughly a point of the state. It also clearly outperforms its sister school, Phoenix Elementary School. The school's statewide ranking slid from the 57th percentile in 2014-15 to a low of 23rd in 2021-22, rebounded sharply to 57th in 2024-25, then settled at the 44th percentile with 2 stars in 2025-26 — above the middle of the ten local schools. Fourth grade is a genuine strength (56.1% ELA, 47.4% math, above district and state), while fifth grade is the opposite: 30.2% ELA and just 14.0% math, less than half the state figure. Science, tested only in fifth grade, is the lowest measure at 17.1%, 13.5 points below the state.

Two bright spots for families: low-income students are served especially well — 83rd percentile with 4 stars in 2024-25 and 66th in 2025-26, both well above the school's overall standing — and chronic absenteeism, at 29.3%, is better than the district, the state, and six of nine neighbors. Spending is $21,540 per student with a 15.8:1 student-teacher ratio, yet Hoover Elementary School and Lone Pine Elementary School outperform it while spending thousands less per student.
