Summary

Metzger Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Tigard, Oregon, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 545 students. The school is part of the Tigard-Tualatin School District, which is ranked 25th out of 140 districts in Oregon and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Metzger Elementary School faces several challenges, including lower academic performance compared to the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Metzger's 3rd grade English Language Arts proficiency rate was 46.6%, compared to 43.8% for the district and 40.3% for the state. The school's performance is particularly low in 5th grade mathematics, where only 35% of students were proficient or better, compared to 36.3% for the district and 31.3% for the state. Additionally, Metzger Elementary School has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30.9% to 39.5% over the past few years, which are significantly higher than the state average.

While Metzger Elementary School's academic performance is generally lower than the nearby Mary Woodward Elementary and James Templeton Elementary schools in the Tigard-Tualatin School District, it performs better than some of the Beaverton School District schools, such as Greenway Elementary and Vose Elementary, which have even lower proficiency rates. The school's relatively high per-student spending of $20,156 in the 2022-2023 school year has not yet translated into improved academic outcomes, and addressing the challenges of high chronic absenteeism and achievement gaps among different student subgroups could be key to improving Metzger Elementary School's overall performance.
