Summary
Woodland Elementary is a K–5 school in Fairview, Oregon, serving 381 students as part of Reynolds School District 7, a district ranked near the bottom of Oregon. In 2025–2026, the school ranked 699th of 709 Oregon schools (1st percentile, 0 stars), continuing a long pattern of bottom-decile results. Proficiency is low across subjects: ELA 15.0%, math 8.9%, and science 12.7%, compared with the district at 23.7%, 12.8%, and 13.7%, and Oregon at 43.8%, 32.9%, and 30.6%. Math is especially weak, with 3rd grade at 7.1% and 5th grade at 7.5%. Nearby, Fairview Elementary School and Multnomah Learning Academy show somewhat stronger results, while Hartley Elementary School and Salish Ponds Elementary School are also near the bottom.
Attendance is a relative bright spot: chronic absenteeism fell from 57.6% in 2021–2022 to 38.8% in 2024–2025. That is better than the district’s 45.3% and several nearby schools—Hartley Elementary School 45.1%, Salish Ponds Elementary School 48.4%, Fairview Elementary School 41.9%, Davis Elementary School 49.8%—but still above Oregon’s 33.5%, and much higher than Gresham Arthur Academy’s 10.1%. The school spends $24,487 per student and has a 13.6 student–teacher ratio, and nearly all students are from low-income families, with a free/reduced-lunch rate effectively at 100%. Yet those resources have not translated into higher proficiency; some nearby schools with larger classes and much lower reported per-pupil spending, such as Multnomah Learning Academy, Rockwood Preparatory Academy, and Gresham Arthur Academy, post higher results, though charter comparisons are not directly equivalent.
Subgroup results are mostly concerning: English learners ranked in the 1st percentile in 2025–2026, and low-income students in the 3rd percentile, so targeted support for these groups appears critical. The school’s biggest academic opportunities are math across grades, early literacy—since 3rd-grade ELA was only 7.0%—and continued attendance improvement. Gresham Arthur Academy, about 1.6 miles away, is a dramatic outlier at 87th percentile with ELA 75.3%, math 56.2%, science 36.8%, and chronic absenteeism of 10.1%. Overall, the school is a high-poverty school in a low-performing district with meaningful attendance progress but very low achievement; families should look closely at the specific supports available for math, reading, English learners, and low-income students.
