Summary

John Tuck Elementary School is a K–5 school at 209 NW 10th St in Redmond, Oregon, serving 382 students in the Redmond School District 2J. Its 2025–26 statewide standing is 290th of 709 Oregon elementary schools — 59th percentile, 3 stars — above the state average and the fourth-strongest of the eight Redmond 2J elementaries. Enrollment is high-poverty: 74.87% of students qualified for free or reduced lunch in 2024–25, up from 66.57% the year before. Spending is comparatively high at $18,439 per student, with a 16.6:1 student–teacher ratio.

Academically, John Tuck outperforms both its district and the state in reading and math: 52.2% proficiency in English language arts (district 45.4, state 43.8) and 41.3% in math (district 33.9, state 32.9) — roughly eight points above Oregon in both. Third grade is a standout, with 70.1% ELA proficiency against a district figure of 42.9%. The school also keeps students in class: 23.0% chronic absenteeism in 2024–25, about ten points better than the district and state (both near 33%), and a 7.4-point improvement in a single year.

The concerns are concentrated in the upper grades. Fifth-grade results lag below district in ELA (40.8%) and math (34.7%), and science is a clear weak spot at 20.4% school-wide versus 30.6% statewide. Tom McCall Elementary School — 1.84 miles away, same district, similar enrollment and poverty, and lower per-student spending ($17,085) — posts nearly identical reading (52.3%) and math (41.6%) scores but 47.0% in science, a 26.6-point gap. Special education results are the most acute worry, at the 4th percentile with 0 stars, down from the 47th percentile two years earlier. The school's rank has also softened from the 76th percentile in 2023–24 to 59th in 2025–26, though Tumalo Community School shows what is possible nearby: 89th percentile with higher poverty and about $1,200 less spending per student.
