Summary:
The 97317 zip code area is home to a single high school, Roberts High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The data analysis reveals that this school is consistently underperforming, ranking in the bottom 10% of Oregon high schools and earning a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Roberts High School struggles with low academic proficiency rates, with only 11.1% of 11th-grade students proficient in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 45.2%. The school also has a lower-than-average four-year graduation rate of 81.8% and a high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.3%. These challenges may be exacerbated by the school's higher proportion of students from low-income families, as indicated by the 35.29% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Despite the higher per-student spending at Roberts High School compared to the state and Salem-Keizer School District 24J averages, the school's performance remains a concern. Addressing the academic and non-academic factors contributing to the school's struggles will require a comprehensive approach to support student success and improve learning outcomes.
