Summary
Columbia Vista Intermediate is a grades 4–6 school in Umatilla, Oregon, in the Umatilla School District 6R, with a reported enrollment of 0 that appears to be a reporting gap, not a real count. On 2025–2026 OSAS tests, proficiency was 17.6% in English language arts, 14.1% in math, and 17.8% in science, versus state rates of 43.8%, 32.9%, and 30.6%. The school beats its district averages (15.6% ELA, 11.5% math, 17.3% science), but the district is ranked 140th of 141 Oregon districts, at the 1st percentile with 0 stars.
Compared with nearby schools, Columbia Vista Intermediate is near the bottom in ELA and math. It beats same-district Clara Brownell Middle School (8.9% ELA, 8.1% math, 15.6% science) in all three subjects, but trails Windy River Elementary School, Irrigon Elementary School, Armand Larive Middle School, and Sandstone Middle School in ELA and math. Science is its relative bright spot: 17.8% is above its same-district middle school, Windy River Elementary School (5.2%), and Irrigon Elementary School (14.9%), though below Armand Larive Middle School (19.7%), Sandstone Middle School (29.8%), and the state. By grade, ELA falls from 21.5% in grade 4 to 17.8% in grade 5 to 13.3% in grade 6; math falls from 18.2% to 12.1% to 11.5%. Grade 6 results are the lowest among comparable nearby results.
Non-test information for Columbia Vista Intermediate is missing: chronic absenteeism, free/reduced lunch, student-teacher ratio, and spending are not reported. Nearby schools show a high-poverty regional context, with free/reduced lunch around 67% to 92%, student-teacher ratios from 12.7 to 19.6, and per-student spending from $18,207 to $23,909. Clara Brownell Middle School’s reported free/reduced lunch figure of 107.89% is not plausible. In district context, Umatilla School District 6R is the lowest-ranked of the comparison group; Morrow School District 1 is 74/141 and Hermiston School District 8 is 55/141. Overall, the school is low-performing in a very low-ranked district, stronger than its same-district middle school and with a relative science bright spot, but far below state proficiency in every subject. The most urgent academic signals are low grade 6 ELA/math and broad ELA/math underperformance across grades 4–6.
