Summary

Silver Crest Elementary School is a small K–8 public school in Silverton, Oregon, serving 119 students within the Silver Falls School District 4J, a district that ranks 28th of 141 statewide at the 80th percentile with 4 stars. The school itself sits in the lower-middle range, ranking 395th of 709 Oregon schools — the 44th percentile, 2 stars. It reached the 69th percentile in 2022–23 but has since settled back into the 41st–44th percentile range.

Math is Silver Crest's relative strength: all-grades math proficiency is 37.3%, above the district (37.0%) and state (32.9%), with grades 6 through 8 all ahead of both. Fifth-grade math is the exception at 25%, and third-grade math results were suppressed by the state. English language arts is the biggest challenge — 40.8% overall, below the district (51.3%) and state (43.8%), with 6th grade at 20% and 7th grade at 27.3%, though 8th grade ELA stands out at 63.2%. Science (34.3%) is above the state but below the district. Among nearby schools, Silver Crest trails Victor Point Elementary School (83rd percentile), Bethany Charter School (81st), Robert Frost Elementary School (77th), and Butte Creek Elementary School (60th), but outranks Scotts Mills Elementary School (40th), Mari-Linn School (33rd), and The Community Roots School (20th).

Chronic absenteeism has improved substantially, from 48.4% in 2022–23 to 31.9% in 2024–25 — below the state (33.5%) but above the district (30.1%) and far above Victor Point Elementary School (11.9%), Bethany Charter School (14.4%), and Evergreen Elementary School (7.5%). The free/reduced lunch rate more than doubled to 51.26%, now similar to many nearby schools, which is useful context for interpreting achievement. Silver Crest spends $17,644 per student, more than most peers — including Victor Point Elementary School, Bethany Charter School, and Sublimity School, which outperform it in all three tested subjects. With just 119 students, grade-level percentages swing easily from year to year, so overall trends matter more than any single result, and subgroup effectiveness has also lagged the school's overall standing.
