Summary

Art Rutkin Elementary School is a PK–5 school serving 131 students in Tigard, Oregon, part of the Tigard-Tualatin School District 23J in the Portland metro area near Beaverton and Sherwood. It is the smallest school in a comparison group of ten nearby elementaries, yet it has earned five SchoolDigger stars in each of the last three reported years, ranking 48th of 710 (2023-24), 21st of 706 (2024-25), and 60th of 709 (2025-26).

Achievement is high across the board. In 2025-26, 64.2% of students met standards in English language arts, 63.9% in math, and 51.4% in science — 15.9, 26.6, and 19.9 points above the district, and 20.4, 31.0, and 20.8 points above the state. Math is the standout: Art Rutkin leads every other Tigard-Tualatin elementary by more than 13 points, ahead of Mary Woodward Elementary School (50.9%), Deer Creek Elementary School (42.2%), and Charles F Tigard Elementary School (32.9%). Chronic absenteeism is the most striking number: 9.2%, roughly a quarter of the district's 33.6% and the state's 33.5%, and the lowest of any school compared here. Classes are small (14.8 students per teacher) and per-student spending is the highest in the group at $25,147.

The only nearby schools posting higher scores are Scholls Heights Elementary School in Beaverton and Ridges Elementary School in Sherwood — and Ridges reaches similar results while spending far less per student (about $16,259) with larger classes, suggesting money alone does not explain Art Rutkin's performance. Parents should weigh two caveats: with only 131 students, small year-to-year changes mean little, and the school's free/reduced-lunch share jumped from 12.84% to 58.02% in one year, which looks like a reporting change rather than a demographic shift.
