Summary:
ZIP code 97146 is home to a single elementary school, Warrenton Grade School, which serves grades K–5 with 405 students as part of the Warrenton-Hammond School District 30. Because it is the only elementary school in this ZIP code, there are no local peers to compare it against, so the most useful benchmark is how it performs relative to its district and to the state of Oregon as a whole.
Academically, the school's clearest bright spot is science: all-grades proficiency is 31.1% versus the state's 30.6%, and 5th-grade science is 31.1% versus 30.8%. English Language Arts and Mathematics lag the state, however. All-grades ELA is 33.3% proficient against 43.8% statewide, and all-grades math is 26.4% against 32.9%. The largest single gap is 3rd-grade math, where 20.0% of students are proficient compared with 41.3% statewide — a 21.3 percentage-point difference. Third-grade ELA is also well behind at 24.0% versus 41.5%. ELA proficiency climbs by grade (24.0% in 3rd, 35.9% in 4th, 38.3% in 5th), while math rises from 20.0% in 3rd to 33.8% in 4th before falling to 23.7% in 5th.
Context matters here. The school's state rank has slipped over three years — from 457 of 710 in 2023–2024 to 495 of 709 in 2025–2026 — with its percentile dropping from 36 to 30 while holding a 2-star rating each year. The district, by contrast, ranks 52 of 141 (63rd percentile, 3 stars), an interesting disconnect. Chronic absenteeism is 34.4%, above the state's 33.5% but better than the district's 38.5%. With 43.46% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, $19,108 in per-student spending, and a 15.5 student-teacher ratio, families should weigh these academic and attendance trends carefully.
