Best Public Schools in Zip Code 97060


Summary:

The 97060 zip code area is home to 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school, all part of the Reynolds School District 7. While the district as a whole is ranked 133 out of 140 school districts in Oregon and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, a few schools in the area stand out.

Reynolds Arthur Academy, a public charter elementary school, consistently outperforms the district and state averages on standardized test scores, with 54.2% of 5th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts in 2024-2025, compared to 29.4% for the district and 46.7% for the state. Similarly, Sweetbriar Elementary School also exceeds district and state performance, with 46.2% of 5th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts.

However, the majority of schools in the 97060 zip code area struggle, with low graduation rates, high chronic absenteeism, and test scores below state averages, particularly in math. Additionally, the schools serve a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 70.62% to 71.23%. The wide range in spending per student, from $11,918 to $23,184, also raises questions about the equity of resource allocation within the district and how these funds are being utilized to support student learning.
