Summary:

The 97437 zip code area is home to a single elementary school, Elmira Elementary School, which serves students from the Fern Ridge School District 28J. While the school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, it has shown mixed academic achievement compared to district and state averages, with strengths in 4th grade English Language Arts but lower proficiency in other grade levels and subject areas.

Elmira Elementary School's statewide ranking has ranged from 351 out of 710 Oregon elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 432 out of 706 in 2022-2023, indicating inconsistent performance. The school's 3rd and 5th grade English Language Arts proficiency, as well as its Mathematics and Science proficiency across all tested grades, have fallen short of district and state averages. However, the school's 4th grade English Language Arts proficiency was higher than both the district and state.

Additionally, Elmira Elementary School serves a relatively high percentage of students from low-income families, with a 37.1% free and reduced-price lunch rate. The school's student-teacher ratio of 16.6 is slightly higher than the recommended 15:1 ratio, and its per-student spending of $15,530 for the 2022-2023 school year may be an important factor to consider when evaluating the school's resources and ability to support student learning.
