Summary

Rose City Park Elementary is a K–5 school in Portland’s Rose City Park neighborhood, serving about 448 students as part of Portland School District 1J. In 2025–26 it ranked in the 82nd percentile of Oregon elementary schools (125th of 709, 4 stars), up from 72 in 2018–19 and peaking at 87 in 2023–24. Proficiency is above state averages in ELA (56.0% vs. 43.8%), math (54.3% vs. 32.9%), and science (47.9% vs. 30.6%), with math a relative strength: the school’s ELA-to-math gap is just 1.7 points, versus 7.3 district and 10.9 statewide. Chronic absenteeism is 20.0%, far below the district’s 32.5% and state’s 33.5%, after improving from 31.9% to 20.0% over three years.

Nearby, four exceptional schools—Laurelhurst Elementary School, Alameda Elementary School, Glencoe Elementary School, and Beverly Cleary School—rank in the 98th–99th percentile and score 16–29 points higher in ELA, 16–26 in math, and 18–28 in science. Rose City Park still leads the next tier by a wide margin, outperforming Vestal Elementary School, Rigler Elementary School, Lee Elementary School, and Scott Elementary School by roughly 10–17 points in ELA, 12–18 in math, and 10–25 in science. It spends more per student ($23,556) and has smaller classes (16:1) than the top four, yet scores lower; Portland Arthur Academy Charter School posts higher ELA proficiency (64.9%) on about half the spending ($12,228).

Subgroup results are mixed. Special education is a genuine strength: those students have ranked in the 94th–95th percentile for three straight years, above the school’s overall 82nd percentile, and English language learners recently ranked 85th–90th. Gifted and talented results have fallen to the 30th percentile in 2025–26, and low-income students have been below the school average for two years (55th percentile). Fifth grade posts the best ELA result (60.0%) but the weakest math result (47.3%), the only grade-level subject below district. Overall, Rose City Park is solid and improving, with standout special education and English learner outcomes; closing internal gaps is its clearest path forward.
