Summary

Centennial Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Scio, Oregon, serving 274 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Scio School District 95, which is ranked 45 out of 140 districts in the state.

Centennial Elementary School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from 213 out of 701 Oregon elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 506 out of 695 in 2013-2014. Its current rating is 2 out of 5 SchoolDigger stars. The school has had varying performances among different student groups, with female students generally outperforming male students. Additionally, Centennial Elementary has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 32.0% to 41.2% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Turner Elementary School and Cloverdale Elementary School, which are part of the Cascade School District 5, Centennial Elementary generally performs below the top-performing schools in the region. The school's relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggests that it serves a disadvantaged population, which may contribute to the challenges it faces in academic performance. However, the school's relatively strong performance among certain student groups, such as female students and low socioeconomic status students, indicates that there may be opportunities to build on these strengths and develop targeted strategies to support the academic growth of all students.
