Pratum Elementary School

Public Grades K-8

Summary

Pratum Elementary School is a very small K–8 school of 71 students on Sunnyview Rd NE in Salem, OR, part of Silver Falls School District 4J — the smallest school in this comparison set, and one that sits on the strong side of a sharp district boundary, with Salem-Keizer School District 24J schools just a few miles away.

Test results (2025–26 OSAS, all grades, % proficient) are strong: 76.1% in English language arts, 56.5% in math, and 66.7% in science. That is 24.8, 19.5, and 26.2 points above the district and 32.3, 23.6, and 36.1 points above the state. Among eleven nearby schools, only Evergreen Elementary School — another tiny K–8 in the same district, 3.6 miles away — scores higher in every subject. The fairest comparisons are the demographically matched peers: Central Howell Elementary School and Bethany Charter School, with nearly identical funding and poverty profiles, post much lower results. The nearby Salem-Keizer schools serve far more economically disadvantaged populations, so those comparisons are not apples-to-apples.

Chronic absenteeism in 2024–25 was 14.1% — the third-lowest of the eleven schools, roughly half the district rate (30.1%) and well under half the state rate (33.5%). Per-student spending was $15,195, the lowest of any non-charter school in the set, down from $26,836 in 2021–22, while the student-teacher ratio rose to 20.6. Eighth-grade results — the only grade-level figures the state did not suppress — are above district and state in all three subjects, but they rest on a very small cohort, so treat them as directional. Pratum ranked 1st of 706 Oregon elementaries (100th percentile, 5 stars) in 2022–23, the most recent rank on file, and has never fallen below the 75th percentile in any year on record.
