Summary:
The Gresham-Barlow School District 10J in Oregon is home to 4 middle schools serving grades 6-8. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and underperforming schools within the district, with West Orient Middle School standing out as the top performer and Gordon Russell Middle School and Clear Creek Middle School struggling to meet district and state averages.
West Orient Middle School consistently outperforms the district and state in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, has the highest statewide ranking, and spends the most per student at $17,447. In contrast, Gordon Russell Middle School and Clear Creek Middle School underperform compared to their peers, with lower test scores and rankings. Dexter McCarty Middle School stands out for its strong English Language Arts performance despite having the highest percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients.
The overall decline in statewide rankings for all 4 schools over the past 3 years is a concerning trend, and the significant variation in spending per student and student-teacher ratios across the schools suggests that resource allocation and staffing may be areas to explore in order to identify opportunities for more equitable support and improved outcomes for all students within the Gresham-Barlow School District 10J.
