Summary

Hayesville Elementary School is a public elementary school in Salem, Oregon, serving 439 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Salem-Keizer School District 24J, which is ranked 110 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Hayesville Elementary School consistently performs below the district and state averages in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 16.9% of 3rd graders, 23.8% of 4th graders, and 16.7% of 5th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the district averages of 25.3%, 27.4%, and 34.7%, respectively. The school's performance in mathematics is also significantly lower than the district and state. Additionally, Hayesville Elementary School has a very high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 34.3% to 47.9% over the past few years, which is much higher than the district and state averages.

The nearby schools within the same district, such as Cesar E Chavez Elementary, Washington Elementary, and Kennedy Elementary, also perform below the district and state averages in academic measures. However, Hayesville Elementary School appears to be one of the lowest-performing schools in the area. The high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds and the high chronic absenteeism rate may be contributing factors to the school's poor academic performance, but simply increasing funding does not seem to be the sole solution, as the nearby Valley Inquiry Charter School significantly outperforms Hayesville Elementary School and the district averages in academic measures.
