Summary

Ockley Green Middle School is a grades 6–8 neighborhood school at 6031 N Montana Ave in North Portland, enrolling 409 students as part of Portland School District 1J, one of Oregon's stronger districts (ranked 12th of 141 statewide).

The headline here is momentum. In 2025–2026 the school ranked 109th of 371 Oregon middle schools (71st percentile, 4 stars) — its best result in the ten years of rank history on file, and a striking climb from the 8th percentile in 2018–2019. Proficiency rates are now above the Oregon average in English language arts (45.3%), math (38.1%) and science (37.1%), though still below the district's unusually high averages. Chronic absenteeism is 34.3%, essentially at district and state rates and down nearly 10 points in one year. Classes are small: 14.1 students per teacher, the third-lowest ratio among eleven nearby Portland middle schools and better than West Sylvan Middle School (18.7), Gray Middle School (18.5), Hosford Middle School (18.9) and Mt Tabor Middle School (18.3).

Compared with its most similar neighbors, the picture is favorable. Against George Middle School, a North Portland school of nearly the same size, Ockley Green leads by roughly 20 points in ELA (45.3% vs 24.8%), 21 in math and 28 in science. Harriet Tubman Middle School, the closest school, scores somewhat higher while spending more per student. Two questions stand out from the data: 8th grade ELA (36.6%) is the school's only result below the state average and sits far below its 6th and 7th grades, and gains are uneven across student groups. Results for students with disabilities have climbed to the 77th percentile (4 stars), while gifted-and-talented students rank in the 24th percentile and low-income students in the 31st. The parent takeaway: this is a school in genuine, unusually fast ascent with small classes and improving attendance — worth a visit, with follow-up questions about 8th grade ELA and how well the gains are reaching every group of students.

What people are saying

We love Ockley Green! The K-8 program there is growing; parents are finding ways to become more involved and teachers consistently amaze us with their ability to promote diversity, art, music and technology through everyday learning. It shows in the way they teach, and in the extra hours they put in that they care very much for our children and their education. At first we were nervous about sending our "baby" to a school with 6th to 8th graders in it, but all you have to do is walk through the halls to see that the "big kids" treat the "little kids" with such great love and respect - it's like one big family.

Ockley Green is a great school, but it's not without it's challenges. The best advantage we have is a great group of dedicated parents, ready to work hard to support our teachers and make Ockley Green the best school in North Portland! Close Quote

I am a Kindergarten parent at Ockley Green, and I am so happy with my experience here! The class sizes are small, the teachers are great, and the community is very supportive. It's still in transition from it's old role as a middle school to a magnet K-8, but it is on it's way up. If you're looking to make a school choice in Portland Public Schools, definitely check it out! Close Quote
