Summary:
ZIP code 97210 is home to exactly one elementary school in this data set: Chapman Elementary School, a K–5 school with 353 students at 1445 NW 26th Ave in Portland. It belongs to Portland School District 1J, which is ranked 12th of 141 Oregon districts — the 91st percentile — and carries a 5-star rating, giving Chapman a strong district context. Because it is the only elementary school in this ZIP code, there is no local peer to compare it against, so district and state averages are the most useful benchmarks.
On 2025–2026 OSAS tests, Chapman outperforms the state in every tested subject at the all-grade level: 50.9% proficient in English Language Arts versus 43.8% statewide, 44.4% in Math versus 32.9%, and 40.4% in Science versus 30.6%. It trails its own district in all three (57.8% ELA, 50.5% Math, 45.1% Science). The grade-level picture is uneven. Fifth grade is the bright spot, at 66% proficiency in ELA and 55.3% in Math — above both district and state in each. Third grade is the clear concern: 37.5% in ELA and 36.2% in Math, below both the district and the state in both subjects. Fourth grade falls between those extremes, above the state but below the district.
Chapman has been a 3-star school in each of the last three rank histories, placing 231st of 709 Oregon elementary schools in 2025–2026 (67th percentile) — up 42 spots from the prior year. Chronic absenteeism is 37.1%, higher than the district's 32.5% and the state's 33.5%, a meaningful headwind, though the data does not establish a link to test scores. The school reports 41.36% free/reduced lunch, $24,159 per-student spending, and a 17:1 student-teacher ratio. Overall, Chapman reads as a solidly above-state school with a strong fifth grade and a weaker third grade.
