Summary:
The 97370 zip code area is home to two elementary schools: Philomath Elementary School and Clemens Primary School, which serves grades K-1. Based on the available data, Philomath Elementary School appears to be the standout performer, consistently ranking in the top half of Oregon elementary schools and outperforming district and state averages on academic assessments.
Philomath Elementary School has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and its academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on state assessments, is generally higher than the Philomath School District 17J and state averages across grade levels and subject areas. The school also has a relatively favorable student-teacher ratio of 16.4. In contrast, Clemens Primary School does not have the same level of detailed performance data available, but it does have a higher percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch compared to Philomath Elementary School.
The data suggests that Philomath Elementary School is providing a high-quality education to its students, with strong academic performance and relatively favorable resource allocation. However, the high chronic absenteeism rates at both schools, which are significantly higher than the state average, indicate that addressing student attendance could be an important focus area for the district. Further analysis of the factors contributing to these differences could provide valuable insights to support all students in the area.
