Summary

Scott Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Portland, Oregon, serving around 500 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Portland School District 1J, which is ranked 13 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of a high-performing district, Scott Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools, with a 0-3 star rating from SchoolDigger. The school performs better for male students than female students, and it performs relatively well for African American and Hispanic students compared to other Oregon elementary schools, but it struggles with English Language Learners, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students. Proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are consistently lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels.

Nearby schools like Alameda Elementary and Laurelhurst Elementary consistently outperform Scott Elementary School in academic achievement, statewide rankings, and student group performance. The high chronic absenteeism rates at Scott Elementary School may be a significant contributor to the low academic achievement, and targeted interventions and support programs for underperforming student groups could be crucial in driving improvements at the school.
