Summary

Multnomah Learning Academy is a K–8 school of about 550 students in Fairview, Oregon, part of Reynolds School District 7 — the lowest-ranked district in this comparison group, at 131st of 141 Oregon districts. MKA is nonetheless the bright spot in its area: in 2025–26 it ranked 484th of 709 Oregon schools (32nd percentile, 2 stars), the highest of any Reynolds school nearby. Its longer record shows a school that once sat near the state median (53rd percentile in 2016–17), drifted below it (29th in 2022–23 and 2023–24), and has partially recovered (40th in 2024–25, 32nd in 2025–26).

On 2025–26 state tests, MKA posts the best English language arts and science results among nearby Reynolds elementaries. ELA: 32.3%, ahead of Fairview Elementary School (29.5%), Davis Elementary School (17.3%), Woodland Elementary (15.0%), Hartley Elementary School (14.7%) and Salish Ponds Elementary School (13.1%), versus 23.7% district-wide and 43.8% statewide. Math: 19.3%, second to Fairview's 23.7%; science: 21.4%, best in the cluster. That beats the district by 8.6, 6.5 and 7.7 points but trails the state by 11.5, 13.6 and 9.2 — the best of a weak group, not a state-competitive school. Math is the structural weakness: proficiency drops from 39.6% in 4th grade to 18.8% in 5th, 13.5% in 6th and 7.7% in 8th. Eighth grade is the only level trailing its own district in every subject.

Chronic absenteeism is 32.7%, lowest in the Reynolds cluster, 12.6 points below the district and slightly better than the state, despite an almost entirely low-income student body. MKA spends $6,889 per student — under a third of Fairview ($26,276) or Woodland ($24,487) — down from $8,836 in 2022–23 while results held steady, with the highest student-teacher ratio (18.4) among the regular district schools compared. Low-income students have ranked at the 51st–57th percentile statewide three years running, and special-education students at the 59th–66th, well above the school's overall 32nd percentile, though small-group results swing widely. Boys have outranked girls in all three reported years. Nearby Gresham Arthur Academy sets a higher local ceiling — 75.3% ELA and 10.1% absenteeism at $6,048 per student — though it serves K–5 only and a less disadvantaged population.
