Summary:

The 97524 zip code area is home to three elementary schools - Hillside Elementary, Eagle Rock Elementary School, and Lake Creek Learning Center - which serve students from kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools are part of the Eagle Point School District 9.

Based on the data, Eagle Rock Elementary School stands out as the top performer in the area. It has the highest statewide ranking, placing in the top 50% of Oregon elementary schools, and outperforms the district and state averages in academic subjects across multiple grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 40-46% of 3rd-5th graders at Eagle Rock were proficient in English Language Arts and Math, compared to the district averages of 28-32%.

In contrast, the other two schools, Hillside Elementary and Lake Creek Learning Center, lag significantly behind in academic performance. Additionally, all three schools have very high chronic absenteeism rates, around 34%, which is an area of concern. The data also suggests that the overall Eagle Point School District 9 is ranked 114 out of 140 districts in Oregon, indicating systemic performance issues across the district.
