Summary

West Sutherlin Intermediate is an elementary school serving 310 students in grades 3-5 in Sutherlin, Oregon, which is part of the Sutherlin School District 130. While the district is ranked 83 out of 140 in the state, West Sutherlin Intermediate has consistently underperformed compared to the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across grades 3-5.

The school's academic performance has been declining over time, with its statewide ranking dropping from 234th out of 701 Oregon elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 585th out of 706 in 2024-2025. Additionally, West Sutherlin Intermediate has had high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23.4% to 38.1% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average. Interestingly, while the school spends $13,945 per student, which is higher than the state average, some nearby schools like Hucrest Elementary and Melrose Elementary in the Douglas County School District are performing significantly better.

The large disparities in performance between student subgroups at West Sutherlin Intermediate, with Hispanic students performing relatively well but White students and students with disabilities performing poorly, suggest potential equity issues that the school and district should address. Addressing the root causes of the school's challenges, such as the high chronic absenteeism rates, could be a key lever for improvement and help the school and district develop targeted strategies to better support all students.
