The district is ranked 40 out of 140 in the state and has a 4-star rating, with several standout schools that consistently perform above the state and district averages.
Westside Elementary School and May Street Elementary School are the top-performing elementary schools in the area, with high proficiency rates in core subjects. Hood River Middle School also stands out as a strong performer, ranking in the top 20% of Oregon middle schools. In contrast, WyEast Middle School and Mid Valley Elementary School lag behind the district and state averages.
The data also reveals some areas of concern, such as the consistently high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, which may be an issue the district needs to address. Additionally, there appears to be a correlation between socioeconomic status and academic performance, with schools serving higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch tending to have lower test scores and rankings. The district should focus on supporting the needs of these schools and students to ensure more equitable educational opportunities for all.
