Summary

Weddle Elementary School is a K–5 school in Keizer, Oregon, serving 352 students as part of Salem-Keizer School District 24J. In 2025–2026 it ranked 689th of 709 Oregon elementary schools—the 3rd percentile, with 0 stars. That is not a one-year dip: from 2016–2017 through 2024–2025 the school generally sat in the 1st–6th percentile, and its best recent year, 2014–2015, still only reached the 11th percentile with 1 star. About 88.64% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025, a rate typical of nearby Salem-Keizer elementaries.

Test scores are among the lowest in the local cluster. In 2025–2026 all-grades OSAS proficiency, Weddle scored 16.5% in English language arts, 14.6% in math, and 8.5% in science—below district and state in every subject, with science less than half the district rate. Among nine nearby schools, Weddle's ELA is second-lowest, ahead of Hallman Elementary School at 16.1%; its math is third-lowest, above Hallman's 8.9% and Keizer Elementary School's 13.6%; and its science is fourth-lowest, above Hallman's under 5%, Keizer's 6.4%, and Cummings Elementary School's 8.1%. Its weakest grades include 4th-grade ELA at 13.4% and 5th-grade math at 10.6%; 4th-grade math, at 17.9%, is a relative bright spot.

Chronic absenteeism improved from 61.8% in 2021–2022 to 40.7% in 2024–2025, now below the district rate of 43.1% but still above the state's 33.5%. Spending is high—$23,338 per student in 2024–2025, second only to Highland Elementary School locally—while the student-teacher ratio rose from 14.8 to 20.1 over two years. English language learners rank in the 24th percentile, well above the school's overall 3rd percentile, and special education students improved to the 11th percentile in 2024–2025. Nearby schools with similar poverty levels, such as Gubser Elementary School (37.9% ELA, 29.2% math, 22.9% science with lower spending), show better results are achievable.
