Summary

Wright Elementary School is a K–5 school serving 378 students on Lone Oak Rd SE in Salem, Oregon, part of Salem-Keizer School District 24J.

Wright currently ranks 333rd of 709 Oregon elementary schools (53rd percentile, 3 stars) for 2025–2026 — squarely in the middle of the state pack. Its proficiency rates run above district averages in every subject: ELA 43.6% (district 34.5%), math 36.4% (district 24.1%), and science 33.3% (district 20.9%). Measured against the state, Wright is essentially average in ELA (43.6% vs. 43.8%), modestly ahead in math, and ahead in science. Among the ten nearby K–5 schools it ranks 5th by state percentile, behind Candalaria Elementary School (84th), Morningside Elementary School (80th), Sumpter Elementary School (68th), and Schirle Elementary School (55th). Science is the genuine bright spot: only Candalaria (42.6%) and Morningside (42.4%) score higher locally, while most neighbors post science results in the teens and low twenties. It's worth knowing that Wright was a 4-star school from 2014–15 through 2022–23 before sliding to 42nd percentile (2 stars) in 2024–25 and recovering somewhat to 53rd in 2025–26.

The most actionable concern is attendance. Wright's chronic absenteeism was 40.3% in 2024–2025 — above the state's 33.5% and 7.4 points above the ten-neighbor average. Notably, schools like Candalaria and Morningside serve similar poverty levels but report far lower absenteeism, making attendance the clearest local differentiator. Special education students ranked 325th of 355 (8th percentile) in 2025–26, a sharp drop from 4 stars two years earlier — small group sizes make this noisy, but the trend is worth watching. Per-student spending is $20,087, the second-lowest among nearby schools, though it has climbed 15.9% in three years.
