Summary

McGovern Elementary School is a public elementary school in Winston, Oregon, serving 231 students in grades 3-5. The school is part of the Winston-Dillard School District 116, which is ranked 115 out of 140 districts in the state.

McGovern Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics around 15-40%, significantly below the state averages of 40-47%. Compared to nearby schools like Hucrest Elementary and Melrose Elementary, McGovern lags behind in academic performance. The school also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 32% to 43% in recent years, which is much higher than the state average.

Despite the relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio at McGovern Elementary, the school's persistent underperformance suggests that a comprehensive, data-driven approach is needed to address the root causes of the school's struggles and implement effective interventions to improve student outcomes. Addressing the high percentage of students from low-income backgrounds and the chronic absenteeism issue should be top priorities for the school and district.
