Best Public Schools in Zip Code 97080

The 97080 zip code area in Oregon is home to 13 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 2 high schools, all part of the Gresham-Barlow School District 10J, except for Butler Creek Elementary and Pleasant Valley Elementary, which belong to the Centennial School District 28J.

Among the standout schools in the area, East Orient Elementary and Butler Creek Elementary are the top-performing elementary schools, with high proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. At the high school level, Springwater Trail High School stands out with the highest 11th grade English Language Arts proficiency rate and a relatively high 4-year graduation rate.

However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps between the highest and lowest performing schools, with chronic absenteeism rates consistently high across all schools. Additionally, the majority of schools have high free/reduced lunch rates, indicating a large population of economically disadvantaged students. The variation in spending per student, with the Centennial School District schools spending more, may contribute to the performance differences between the two districts.
