Summary

Multi-sensory Instruction Teaching Children Hands-On (MITCH) is a small K–5 elementary school serving 237 students in Tualatin, Oregon, part of the Tigard-Tualatin School District 23J, where it is the smallest of eight district elementary schools and sits about half a mile from Tualatin Elementary School. For 2025-26 it ranked 89th of 709 Oregon elementary schools — the 87th percentile, with 4 stars — and across ten ranked years it has never fallen below the 73rd percentile, earning 4 or 5 stars every single year. Class sizes are modest, with a student-teacher ratio of 15.8, a bit below the district peer average.

Among its seven same-district peers, MITCH leads on rank (the next closest, Edward Byrom Elementary School, is 92 places behind), on all three tested subjects, and on attendance. In 2025-26, 67% of students met standards in math versus 37.3% district-wide, 57% in English language arts versus 48.3%, and 52% in science versus 31.5%. Notably, math outpaces ELA here — a reversal of the pattern across the district and state, and at every same-district peer. Chronic absenteeism, at 12.9%, is far below the district's 33.6% and has dropped more than 20 points in three years. Regionally, though, three nearby schools outrank MITCH: Westridge Elementary School in the Lake Oswego School District 7J (2nd in the state), Stafford Primary School (96th percentile), and River Grove Elementary School (92nd percentile).

Two things are worth watching. Math results fade across grades — 78.9% in 3rd grade, the highest such figure among district schools, down to 48.0% in 5th — while ELA holds steady near 56–58% in every grade. Also, the school's free/reduced-lunch percentage is not reported, so there is no way to know how its results relate to student demographics, and its reported per-student spending figure reflects a different reporting basis and should not be compared with other schools.
